Going to the Moon, with Chris Brown

We continue our conversations with state/local CFOs, this time with City of Houston Controller Chris Brown. He explains Houston's remarkable $6 billion pension reform, why other post-employment benefit (OPEB) liabilities are the next big fiscal challenge, what other CFOs can learn from Houston's experience, and why "Structurally-Balanced Budget" is a hot new drinking game, among other topics. In Ripped from the Headlines we discuss the "fiscal cliff" for local transit systems.
