New from Justin Doud: Water is one of many issues at the forefront of Texas politics this election cycle, no place more so than in Corpus Christi. Both candidates for this key House race have made it a central point in their campaigns. https://www.texasobserver.org/corpus-christi-water-election-texas-house-district-34/

🐦 NEW: Myrtle #warblers banded in #Alaska carried Tic Tac-sized geolocator backpacks that logged light and air pressure for a year.
The #data from recaptured #birds showed an eastward loop across Canadian boreal #forest to the #GulfCoast, a nearly 11,000 km (6,800 mi) round-trip likely tracing an ancient post-glacial expansion.

From our magazine: “[Houston's] the city of haters, you know. If you can win over the folks here, shit, I can go anywhere—LA, New York, Chicago. It doesn’t matter because if you can win over a hater in Houston, you can win over the world.” https://www.texasobserver.org/kam-franklin-the-suffers-solo-album-houston/

Top story: In #Houston, the mayor has near-autocratic power the likes of which other "strong-mayor" cities like NY or LA can only dream of, yet its politics are stultifying, its outcomes unremarkable.
Bayou City's mayor is running out of time ... https://www.texasobserver.org/john-whitmire-houston-mayor-state-city-government/

This week's top story: John Whitmire is a nominally “strong” mayor with a relatively meager voter mandate, presiding over a once-mighty fiefdom in decline.
How, then, did the strongest mayor in America become so weak? https://www.texasobserver.org/john-whitmire-houston-mayor-state-city-government/

Top story: As the strong mayor of #Texas' largest city, the former dean of the Texas Senate should be able to get his way in #Houston. But he faces a shrinking ability to do so without vindictive state Republicans or other regional actors intervening. https://www.texasobserver.org/john-whitmire-houston-mayor-state-city-government/

New from Candice Bernd: The Republican candidate for #Texas Railroad Commissioner is a racist, far right "great replacement theory" proponent.
Here is how #Houston Democrat Jon Rosenthal hopes to win over Lone Star voters ... https://www.texasobserver.org/railroad-commission-bo-french-jon-rosenthal/

In our magazine: Over nearly two decades, Kam Franklin has become one of #Houston’s most accomplished musicians.

Top story: If #Houston’s problem were only who sat in the mayor’s office, a well-experienced and well-connected pol would be well positioned to reverse the city’s fortunes.
So why has the current office holder been so ineffective? https://www.texasobserver.org/john-whitmire-houston-mayor-state-city-government/

Earlier: In an attempt to overcomply with #Texas law, the University of #Houston will eliminate over 100 women's studies, gender and sexuality courses from the core curriculum.
It won't be enough to appease extremist Republicans. https://www.texasobserver.org/university-of-houston-ends-gender-sexuality-courses-op-ed/

Out today from Sam Russek: In response to protests and dissatisfaction, John Whitmire's #Houston has resorted to new tactics for monitoring public data and social media posts, including a $620K contract with an #AI-powered firm based in Tel Aviv, cofounded by a veteran of Israeli military intelligence. https://www.texasobserver.org/john-whitmire-houston-mayor-state-city-government/

New, from our magazine, by Sam Russek: John Whitmire is a nominally “strong” mayor with a relatively meager voter mandate, presiding over a once-mighty fiefdom in decline.
How, then, did the strongest mayor in America become so weak? And even if Whitmire could get his way, what would that way look like? https://www.texasobserver.org/john-whitmire-houston-mayor-state-city-government/

From Dylan Baddour at Inside Climate News: On a single day last week, the city council in drought-stricken Corpus Christi voted to lift restrictions on watering lawns, and to suspend policies designed to protect local wetlands. https://www.texasobserver.org/corpus-christi-water-lifting-restrictions-lawns/

New from Dylan Baddour at Inside Climate News: In Corpus Christi, still under a record-breaking #drought, you can #water your lawn but the city won't water the wetlands.
Experts say this policy could turn the bay into a giant "septic tank." https://www.texasobserver.org/corpus-christi-water-lifting-restrictions-lawns/

#ICYMI: Nearly 2,000 juniors across 16 high schools in #Houston ISD were pulled from Algebra II and placed in remedial math. At some #schools, about 70% of juniors were similarly demoted into less challenging classes.
It wasn't due to poor grades ... https://www.texasobserver.org/the-houston-miracle-shell-game/

Featured story: Under Mike Miles, #Houston ISD forced 1000s of students into remedial classes in order to artificially improve school ratings. It's a stark warning of what's to come for other school districts in the crosshairs. https://www.texasobserver.org/the-houston-miracle-shell-game/
