A budget shortfall, so they hand out huge raises: • County Clerk, Tax Assessor-Collector & District Clerk: $179,421 → $305,000 (+$125,579) • County Attorney & District Attorney: $217,485 → $305,000 (+$87,515) • Each of the 8 Constables: $260,000 → $305,000 (+$45,000)

The 3 democrats Commissioners -Rodney Ellis, Adrian Garcia, Lesley Briones and Republican Tom Ramsey voted “Yes” on those. They’re all the same. It’s time to put regular people in that court. This fight isn’t about Red vs Blue but People vs Career Politicians. Write-In Yan Hess for Harris County Judge and Write-In @MichelleGwinnTX for , we will fight to cut waste and unnecessary spending so the county property tax rate can actually come down in a meaningful way. These politicians will just give us crumbs. Pct 4 Commissioner.
