  Several prominent Amarillo business people donated to support the so-called travel ban. Meanwhile, statewide progressive groups helped the opposition.

The article from KXXV discusses the financial aspects of the election in Amarillo, Texas, concerning a proposed abortion travel ban. Despite the significant attention and spending on this issue, campaign finance records do not fully reflect the total expenditures. The election, which took place on May 6, 2023, involved a proposition to ban the use of city roads for transporting individuals seeking an abortion outside of Texas. While official records show some spending, much of the financial activity, including grassroots efforts, out-of-state contributions, and dark money, remains unreported. This lack of transparency makes it difficult to gauge the true financial influence on the election's outcome. The article highlights the complexities of tracking campaign finance in local elections, especially when controversial issues like abortion are at stake, and notes that both supporters and opponents of the ban engaged in extensive, often unreported, financial campaigning.
