Paxton is the one that needs to be in prison. Perhaps you should do your research.

I don't live in Harris county but im guessing that this is an election year in Harris County. Sounds like a BRIBE to me.
That form of vote buying is not allowed in Texas.
No, it’s bullsh*t to randomly give money away. How about you make sure before they are eligible you verify they are legal citizens, have a job, have a high school education, and have NO criminal record.

Good! This is socialism. It's cruel to hand out money not earned to able bodied people.
Way to go Ken! Bettencourt fights my property taxes. Thanks for clearing that up for us!
Nobody ever handed me free monthly money. Get a job and pay taxes then draw social security and retirement like the rest of the Country.
We are a constitutional Republic,not a democracy. What's cruel,is giving away tex payer money when we are all struggling. And lastly, MAGA means MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Saying it as though it's bad only shows ones disdain for this country & the American citizens.
If those funds are “surplus “ return them to the federal government.
Trump 2024 🇺🇸
Sick, I don't want anything from the government. I just want to live without all this government interference in my life!!!!!!!!
No give aways, that's preposterous!
I have guaranteed income as long as I hold up my end of the agreement by working for it. These giveaways are insane.
Woohoo!!!! Stop the insanity
This story makes me glad I moved to Fort Bend county.
Why is it $500/no to spend on anything? No way! Move to NY for handouts
Go Ken! Go!
I knew that was a no-go when I heard about it
Hidalgo is mad because she has to work harder to keep a portion of the money she's giving. The money should be given to Houston citizens who don't live in the Memorial, River Oaks, Heights, Mid Town area. I'm middle class and I'm struggling
It's just extra welfare. There's plenty of jobs that need to be filled. When you give stuff away, the person receiving NEVER learns the lesson of hard work. Its unfare to the working class citizen. Enough is enough. Crazy people.
Why didn't they block it in San Antonio or other cities in Texas? As soon as it's offered in Houston they want to stop that's CRAZY
Young politician who in the dark trying to make a name for himself.
Houston used to be such a nice place😔
Where's crazy Harris Co.??
Weird bc in another recent press conference she said that they are in a deficit so how are you giving money away🤔. So over 11 million to just give out? In a surplus I might understand/listen to a point but not in a deficit. Are they taking care of the services the county needs first. Just amazed by the numbers that they throw out that they never say where the money is coming from. And if it's left over Covid money that the federal government gave and it's not used GIVE IT BACK
How about using the money to help create a solution for people who have no home. Do something to help the people who are waiting at intersections asking us for money. My dollar isn’t enough to make a difference.
She’s a judge and hasn’t figured out the United States of America is a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC?!?!

Giving a camera and classes to one person might help that person but creating a program that teaches and can loan out equipment could help many. I’d probably recommend a different training though. It’s extremely difficult making a living off of photography. I do love it though and having a hobby turn into a career might be great.

Financial aid... you are talking college classes.... no asking someone to take on $40k in debt isn't an answer. Getting them into a couple $400 online classes about their specific subject, giving them capitol to get some basic equipment and letting them get out there and start doing it. Many fields don't require college these days (I do have a BA btw) but just need some starting capitol - and at the bottom sometimes $500 is all you need. But when you are working 2 full time jobs just to pay rent saving $500 is an impossible dream.
