It’s a pleasure to welcome Lonnie Ali, wife of Muhammad Ali, to Houston with colleagues. Houston knows the power of standing together. Muhammad Ali’s courage left a lasting mark on our city, and Lonnie Ali continues his legacy through philanthropy rooted in compassion, dignity, and service.

Muhammad Ali inspired the world with one act of compassion at a time. We can help kindness travel farther.

It is a distinct pleasure to extend a warm welcome to H.E. Wafa Al-Marzouqi to Houston on the occasion of her appointment as Consul General of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in Houston.

Her appointment marks a historic milestone as the first Saudi woman to serve as Consul General, reflecting the Kingdom’s continued progress and the growing contributions of Saudi women in diplomacy and public service.

We wish her every success in this distinguished role and many years of achievement, fulfillment, and happiness in Houston.

Houston’s companion animals face serious challenges, including homelessness, overpopulation, neglect, and cruelty. These issues affect not only animals and shelters, but also the safety, health, and overall well-being of our community.

Houston PetSet is working to address this crisis at its source by advancing humane, scalable solutions that prevent suffering and strengthen public safety. Through advocacy, research, community services, strategic partnerships, and support for frontline animal-welfare organizations, Houston PetSet helps elevate the needs of homeless and abused animals and encourages lasting, system-wide change.

Creating a safer and more compassionate Houston requires collaboration among residents, nonprofit organizations, businesses, and public leaders. By supporting responsible pet ownership, spay-and-neuter initiatives, adoption, cruelty prevention, and stronger animal-welfare policies, each of us can help build a future in which every companion animal is valued and protected.

Today, we join our Houston neighbors in celebrating Mexican Independence Day and honoring the courage, history, and vibrant traditions of the Mexican people.

The relationship between Mexico and the United States is strengthened by shared prosperity, enduring friendship, and cultural connections that enrich communities on both sides of the border. Nowhere is that bond more visible than in Houston, where generations of Mexican and Mexican American families have helped shape our Houston’s identity, economy, and future.

As Houstonians celebrate this proud occasion, we reaffirm our commitment to an even stronger partnership—one that continues to create opportunity, deepen understanding, and bring our people closer together. ¡Viva México!

🇬🇹 ¡Que viva Guatemala! On September 15, we proudly celebrate the 205th anniversary of Guatemala’s independence—honoring its rich heritage, vibrant culture, and the enduring contributions of Guatemalans at home and abroad.

Houston is proud to be home to an estimated 44,000 residents of Guatemalan origin across the greater Houston area.

On September 15, we celebrate 205 years of independence—and the friendship, community, and shared prosperity that continue to unite Guatemala, Houston, and the United States.

¡Feliz Día de la Independencia, Guatemala! 🇬🇹💙🤍

September 11, 2001–September 11, 2026
Twenty-five years later, we remember September 11, 2001—the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the courage shown in the face of senseless tragedy.

We honor everyone who died that day and the many people who lost their lives in the years that followed, including first responders, service members, and others who carried the lasting costs of that day.

September 11 changed us as Americans. It reminded us of the importance of compassion, courage, service, and standing together. Today, we remember, we mourn, and we honor their lives by choosing kindness and unity.

We will never forget.

Special appreciation to the Mayor's Office of Trade and International Affairs for all they do to grow and support Houston.
