About Texas Municipal League

The Texas Municipal League exists solely to provide services to Texas cities. Since its formation in 1913, the League's mission has remained the same: to serve the needs and advocate the interests of its members.

The TML constitution states that the purpose of the League is to "render services which individual cities have neither time, money nor strength to do alone."
