El Paso Community College is experiencing reduced funding from the state as students return to classes. This change is a result of the 2023 House Bill 8 legislation.

The new legislation affects community colleges across Texas, with millions of dollars missing from the Texas Higher Education Board.

Further details on the impact of this funding change are available from local news sources, including an interview with EPCC President Dr. William Serrata on KTSM 9 News.
