Concrete batch plants do not belong next to schools.
Today I joined families protesting the dangerous concrete plant that resumed operations next to early childhood centers. I’m working to facilitate a meeting for parents w/ TXDOT (using the plant for highway construction).
I’m with these parents.

Thank you @whitehouse.senate.gov for visiting us in #Houston to continue the fight for affordable home insurance.
Insurance costs are skyrocketing bc of #ClimateChange. Residents are boxed into policies w/ soaring premiums and often can’t get new plans.
Meanwhile extreme weather is increasing.

Today’s peaceful #NoKing protests are a reminder of what and who #Houston is, and our message of democracy and freedom.
As we welcomed 15k+ people to City Hall, it was my privilege to introduce our veterans at today’s rally and recognize volunteers, organizers, labor, and public safety personnel.

Houston must be prepared for increasing natural disasters and extreme weather. As City Council considers the FY26 budget, it needs to reflect the realities of today.
I will continue to keep the focus on disaster preparedness funding. #DistC

It was truly an honor to be awarded by Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse (AVDA) as we continue to fight for domestic violence survivors and their kids in court.
We’re seeing devastating federal funding cuts that are a lifeline for orgs like AVDA. Now’s the time to help.

Today I teamed up w/ CM Castillo to host an 11th St. Corridor Safety Project Listening Session.
100+ joined, including kids, PTAs, civic orgs, & businesses. We’re listening to Houstonians. We hope the city will re-instate community based feedback before decisions on projects are unilaterally made.

Leading up to #EarthDay in #DistC, we hosted our annual rain barrel sale!
Discounted rain barrels help residents lower water bills, reduce flooding, and mitigate drought. Big thanks to Trees for Houston for giving free🌳’s for all!
Gratitude to all our amazing volunteers from HOPE 123 and IBEW 716

THIS is #Houston turning out for #Democracy as millions around our country are losing jobs, their savings, and safety nets.
Only 3 min allowed on Bluesky but it keeps going and going.
Thousands are turning out against Trump. This is not a red vs blue thing. It’s a right vs. wrong thing.

To my dear friend, mentor, and Congressman-we will carry the torch.

Told him to get them out of our district.
He pulled them up and left.
