Office of Houston City Controller

09/24/2026

I’m deeply saddened by the passing of former State Representative Garnet Coleman. Garnet was my friend, my neighbor, and my representative in Austin.

For more than 30 years, he fought for Houston and for Texans whose voices had been silenced, expanding access to health care, championing mental health services, and standing up for the community he called home.

Houston has lost a giant. My prayers are with his wife Angelique, his son Austin, his daughter Evan, and everyone who loved him. His legacy of service will live on.

Once a quarter, our office convenes its Labor Advisory Council to bring together members of Houston’s labor community for meaningful dialogue, collaboration, and discussion around issues affecting our city’s workforce.

Thank you to everyone in this room who’s committed to improving Houston’s labor community.

Would you give away $100-200 in exchange for $27? 
 
City Hall just did, times a million. We need to be honest about the numbers and call this what it is: a bad deal for Houston.
