![]() Alexandra Mealer has been appointed to the board of Metro. Ms. Mealer was appointed as a representative of 14 smaller cities in Metro's service area. Here is the Metro press release if you want to read the bad news for yourself. Above you see Ms. Mealer being sworn-in by Harris County Precinct #3 Commissioner Tom Ramsey. It makes sense Commissioner Ramsey would swear-in Ms. Mealer. Commissioner Ramsey, for no valid reason, voted no on certifying Harris County off-year election results in 2021, and Ms. Mealer pursued a frivolous lawsuit to overturn her well-merited 2022 ballot box defeat to Lina Hidalgo. But despite their mutual contempt for democracy, here these scoundrels are in positions of power and influence. We've become sadly accustomed to election deniers in positions of public trust. But that doesn't mean we must accept it. Commissioner Ramsey & Ms. Mealer are out for our most basic freedoms in whatever positions they hold. The good news is that if are willing to push back at the ballot box, on the streets, and wherever the right takes this anti-democratic challenge, we will prevail. Please sign the Houston Democracy Project petition to make the pledge to show up for freedom in 2024 no matter what. The Houston Democracy Project works daily to inspire, organize and strengthen pro-democracy coalitions in Houston and Harris County. Please share word of the Houston Democracy Project and support the effort with your contribution. If you have a question about the Project or a suggestion, please send an e-mail to [email protected]
