COUNCIL MEMBER JOLANDA JONES SAYS RENEW HOUSTON'S APOLOGY FALLS SHORT!

Houston City Council Member Jolanda Jones is now weighing in on the controversial Renew Houston email.  A member of the political organization criticized Black elected officials for not supporting Proposition 1.  It would call for a citywide fee to help improve streets and drainage.  Here's what Jones had to say about an apology issued to Council member Wanda Adams tonight by Renew Houston:

RESPECTFULLY, ReNew Houston/Prop 1 should've issued apology 2 CM Adams. Mr. Jones also disrespected 3 other CMs Bradford, Johnson & Jones. His email spoke of all of us disparagingly. Mr. Jones isn't just member. He represented ReNew Houston at presentation 2 Black elected officials! He's 1 of their leaders! Last I heard 2nite, when I spoke w/ my colleagues, none of us had received apologies from them or Mr. Jones.
