Dallas Pinkslips

Almost 800 civilian employees working for the city of Dallas face layoffs, as part of the effort to balance next fiscal year's budget. Another several hundred vacant positions will not be filled.

These are among the latest possible steps to bridge a $100 million dollar budget shortfall. They will be presented to the City Council Wednesday.

Join us tonight at 9pm on The 33 News to find out what goes into making these hard decisions and what's at stake for the city of Dallas.  Not everyone agrees with the plan at hand.
