We must continue working toward a Harris County where everyone can access safe, stable, affordable housing. Too many people share stories like Nicole Griffin’s, living just one paycheck, two weeks, or even one week away from homelessness. That is why I am proud that my office took action to reallocate $16 million toward housing stability programs to fund rental assistance, eviction prevention, and rapid re-housing services for those experiencing homelessness. | Rodney Ellis

Did you know that Harris County faces a pollution incident on a daily basis? Pollution Control Director Dr. Latrice Babin said in last week's budget hearings that proposed cuts will "significantly hinder" the county's ability to respond to incidents and to hold polluters accountable for leaking toxins into our air, soil, and water. | Rodney Ellis

While serving as Acting Governor of Texas, I had the honor of declaring Former Vice President Kamala Harris an Honorary Texan, a recognition she continues to embody through her leadership, grace, and unwavering commitment to service. Watching her journey unfold has been a source of pride for me, Texas, and our nation. Thank you, BlackGirlsWhoBrunch on Instagram, for capturing this incredible moment during Former VP Harris’s 107-day Book Tour stop in Houston. | Rodney Ellis

"There will be extended times for testing and report completion, leading people to jail longer than necessary, delays in court hearings, and a building backlog of cases, which could take months or years to overcome." - Julie Spence Prine, Chief of Staff for Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences, on how proposed budget cuts will delay and deny justice. | Rodney Ellis

Budgets are a moral document; they show what our priorities are. At court this week, I voted to stagger law enforcement raises to preserve programs such as lead abatement, affordable housing, and maternal and child health. Unfortunately, Commissioners Court voted against this proposal. While disappointed, I will continue to advocate for the justice and safety of working families, without exception. | Rodney Ellis
