🥵 Areas like Gulfton, Alief and Sharpstown are as high as 14 degrees hotter than the cooler neighborhoods in Houston, such as Tomball, Northside and Baytown, according to data collected by Houston Harris Heat Action Team’s H3AT Mapping Campaign project. bit.ly/41tm3VU

Sharon Brown wants the bayou behind her North Forest home to stop flooding. She also wants her local Houston Community College campus to grow. As it turns out, residents in the northeast Houston community can’t have both. 🧵Stick with me… houstonlanding.org/why-north-fore…

The Education Department is now quoting Moms for Liberty in official press releases:

My last story as a Houston Landing public safety reporter published today. José Luis Martínez and I found that Mark Herman, Harris County Constable Precinct 4 deputies initiate dozens of high-speed chases every year over minor traffic violations -- resulting in at least 9 fatalities since 2021. 🧵 houstonlanding.org/minor-offense-…

BREAKING: Houston ISD Supt Miles’ administration will propose a plan to close an undisclosed number of schools. The plan will be considered in the fall and any approved closures would take effect summer 2026, according to district documents. houstonlanding.org/houston-isd-to…

I want to tell you about a story I've wanted to write for 6 years that published today. It's about how Texas treats people who fall behind on their property taxes, what punishments they should face & who should be allowed to profit from them.

Three years. Three cities. Seven different doctors. Some misdiagnosed me. Many said my pain was in my head. All of them told me my period pain was normal. Except it was never normal. I had endometriosis and it was ruining my body. Here is my story: houstonlanding.org/endometriosis-…

so so thrilled to see all the texas reporters honored as finalists for the @edwriters reporting awards!! particularly Asher Lehrer-Small for beat reporting, Keri Heath for breaking news + Talia Richman for features !!! ewa.org/ewa-awards/202…

New from Asher Lehrer-Small: Houston ISD teacher salaries could soon range from $64,000 to $101,000 per year depending largely on employees’ performance ratings, ending a long-time practice of paying educators based on years of experience. houstonlanding.org/mike-miles-his…

Well, fuck: Houston Landing to cease operations in face of financial challenges houstonlanding.org/houston-landin…

This is so horrible and bad and awful. My thoughts are especially with all the ace education reporters at the Landing, which prioritized education coverage in a way that every news outlet, small and large, always should — but rarely does. houstonlanding.org/houston-landin…

We remain committed to supporting our members after the Houston Landing's board of directors voted to cease operations in mid-May. Full statement below:

HISD will completely eliminate its Wraparound Dept, which helped students in need access food, clothing, shelter and more. This marks the formal end of a program that was once among the largest such initiatives in the country. It comes after leaders whittled it down last year

Me, a person who just found out I will soon be laid off, calling cold calling wraparound specialists, who also just found out they're about to be laid off 🫠

Scrolling through the list of folks chipping in and getting emotional. 🥲 Journalism is a tough industry, but everyone has each others' backs. Feeling grateful to know so many kind, talented people

Further proof that the talent assembled in the Houston Landing newsroom is second to none. Congrats to my colleagues Asher Lehrer-Small & Anna-Cat Brigida who have both been named Livingston Finalists, separately, for their phenomenal work last year: wallacehouse.umich.edu/livingston-awa…
