@jen_rice_ Two negative adds in my mailbox swung my vote here. Focus on the local issues that we are electing you to make a difference on. No place for this.

This is just sad. it is really so embarrassing for a Houston city council campaign use religious fearmongering in an election that should maybe be about something like......oh I don't know..........what candidates plan to do about flooding.............

Still here. Still the Council Member. Still working every day for our residents. Still participating in the budget and making sure residents are informed.
Houston Mayor's Office@houmayor

@gratifihouston @evan7257 Pollard declined the briefing. His chief of staff attended the briefing/meeting for staff. Kamin won’t be on council when the votes are cast for the FY 2027 budget.

For a Mayor that says we’re broke and therefore have to cower to the Governor, as a city we sure are wasting a lot of money ripping up *new* streets and safety improvements.
Emmanuel Núñez@emmanume

Quick update from today’s City Council meeting regarding the 11th Street corridor. Council Member Twila Carter @TwilaForHouston raised concerns about the 11th Street bikeway, noting she has been receiving constituent communications requesting its removal. Council Member Castillo @MarioforHouston responded by pointing to the community engagement process and safety data supporting the current design. The Mayor @houmayor then asked whether police and fire departments were included in that engagement. While no decisions were made, the conversation signals that the 11th Street redesign could become part of a broader reevaluation of recent street projects. change.org/houstonloves11…

@nickpowellchron @cynthiavanm "We are hardly responsible for the lack of voter participation" reads same as "We in no way have a duty to inform the collective interests of the community we serve." You have missed the mission on this one.

@cynthiavanm We are hardly responsible for the lack of voter participation — quite the contrary — and for Jen to infer that by screenshotting an article by a reporter covering that story is both super lame and pretty embarrassing

Just so I'm clear, because I've just about reached peak annoyance with this ongoing bit - you're positing that the Houston Chronicle, basically the city's only source of news for local government and elections, is to blame for low turnout in an off year?
Jen Rice@jen_rice_

predictably here's today's @HoustonChron piece unironically lamenting houston's low voter turnout & low voter info, brought to you by the exact people paywalling their voter guide when they could simply give houstonians free access to basic info about what's on the ballot & when

@JoeCutrufo Close Main Street from the Ion Building to UHD for only mass transit, bikes, and pedestrians. I said what I said.

@theSurlyBiker I hear you but we must have the protected infrastructure first. Elementary kids should not have and are not prepared to deal with the chaos that you post by video frequently.

Every car on the left is a parent in the school pick-up line. During summer this road is basically empty. (cars on the right are parked for the apartments) Parents, put your kids on the bus, a bike, a scooter, a OneWheel, ANYTHING! Stop unnecessary trips & adding to traffic.

Houston City Council approved $1.125 million for the emergency reconstruction of the MKT Trail Hogan Pedestrian Bridge! Thank you to @MarioforHouston, @HouPublicWorks, and all the partners involved. After damage in Jan, this vote ensures reopening by May 2026.

@jen_rice_ You are correct and this is unfortunate. We no longer have the capacity to sit in a moment, consider consequences, and have the willingness to change for the better. It's just harm after harm after harm.

one of the reasons why emergency alert systems aren't better is because we collectively stop talking about the problem within 2 weeks of a disaster and nobody wants to hear about it anymore

You play into his hand when you make this fight about bikes, by the way. That's reactionary messaging. He's ready for it. Begging you to take the bait. Don't do it.

@JCuevas_713 @AbbieKamin I hope not! Where did you hear this? That Heights infrastructure is critical and used by many. An hour ago I was on MKT between Heights and the bridge and it was PACKED!
