After seeing long lines for the Rodeo and now the World Cup, we must recognize that investments in transit are not nice to haves but true critical infrastructure for a thriving global city.

Is parking preventing Houston from fighting homelessness? | Opinion houstonchronicle.com/opinion… via @houstonchron

Theyll never learn

Best commute in Houston 🚲

they're calling it the most sickos combined no-hitter of all time

The MKT Bridge is open right on time for summer!! Happy Memorial Day weekend! 👀why did it take 480 days tho

Breaking news! The MKT Bridge opened this evening! We're not saying it was like that time the Berlin Wall fell but we are not not saying that.

Thank y’all for tuning in.  We’re going to keep telling you the truth about the city’s finances and where your tax dollars are going.

if they're going to stink at least open the roof

The question is not whether he deserves execution (he does), but whether we should execute him (we shouldn't). In the USA, executing people does not reduce crime, protect people (at least if incarcerated in more protective prisons), or save money compared to long term imprisonment. Executing people hardens us as a society to others. All systems of capital punishment there are systems to protect the executioner from the deed, showing the recognition of how such acts are bad for them as human beings, even when they agree in principle it's moral. In the US, the evidence & ethics are against having any executions.

The city @houmayor @HouPublicWorks couldn’t or was unwilling to enforce a signed and informative detour for a trail closure, so we had to print the signs and do it ourselves in partnership with neighborhood stakeholders ATOTB.org/detour

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.

An electric vehicle charged by an ICE generator is more efficient than an ICE vehicle bc a generator always operates in its power band close to max thermodynamic efficiency. Even w transmission loss, this gives significantly higher miles per gallon than an ICE car.

I live near Blodgett bike lanes and will be so so disappointed to see them removed. They are beautiful, make it more safe for non-car users (so many elders and students in the area that walk). And I always see people using them when I'm nearby, including people with strollers.

Excited to see progress being made on the Commerce-Elysian connector trail! Allows better access from the East End to Downtown, plus a continuous trail along the south side of Buffalo Bayou through Downtown Houston

I grew up in Houston and it always seemed to me as we had big immigration waves, that it wasn't just the immigrants that acclimated to our way of live, but we acclimated to theirs as well. Like a connection between. And honestly that's how it should be in this 250 year old country. We don't have thousands of years of one culture, we have 250 of many. So when someone says. Immigrants no longer integrate into society what they really mean is, they don't integrate with the society they experienced in their bubble, or the society they watched in movies. Houston has always been known for it's super diversity, and it's a big part of why Houston is special. Texas its self has a culture that doesn't fit into what someone in Ohio might think is the American culture. And Houston is super different than Dallas which is super different than Austin. Maybe next time you take a trip with your family to get some Mexican food, or some kolaches, or Thai, you think about that. Because those are as American as apple pie, and we're better off for it.

I’m disappointed in today’s vote, but this fight is far from over. This has always been about protecting families, upholding the Constitution, and keeping our officers focused on solving crime, not doing the job of ICE. While I am hopeful based on the City Attorney's assurances that this amendment will continue to end HPD's 30-minute wait for ICE and not permit officers to detain on the basis of a civil administrative warrant alone, Houstonians shouldn’t have to rely on promises when these safeguards should be written into law. I’m glad transparency and reporting requirements that we passed remain, representing meaningful progress in improving accountability. I will keep fighting alongside Houstonians to defend our constitutional rights and protect families.

Classic big market, big team. Lose a game and accuse the other team of cheating. I like a handful of Dodgers players but I wish them nothing but failure going forward.

This could be Houston, but our mayor believes letting drivers speed is more important than pedestrian safety
