Certification Revenue Estimate


Annual Percentage Change of Tax Collections

Texas has recently experienced a sustained period of historically high revenues. State sales tax revenues, which account for 59 percent of all funds tax collections, surged in June with strong growth in all major economic sectors. Motor vehicle sales and rental tax collections are setting records; before May 2021, this revenue source had never topped $500 million. Oil and natural gas production taxes also hit high marks in June, although severance taxes are historically volatile.
