  • Sheila Jackson-Lee Statement
    The University of Houston provided the following statement from Elwyn C. Lee, Jackson Lee's husband. "In response to your inquiry, the University of Houston has received the following Congressional earmarks, either sponsored or co‐sponsored by Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee: FY 2011 Bill: Defense Project: Carbon Composite Thin Films for Power Generation and Energy Storage Amount: $1 million Sponsor: Sheila Jackson Lee FY 2010 Bill: Energy and Water Project: National Wind Energy Center Amount: $2 million Sponsor: Kay Bailey Hutchison, Al Green, Gene Green, Lee Bill: Labor‐HHS Project: Teacher Training and Professional Development Amount: $400,000 Sponsor: Lee FY 2009 Bill: Energy and Water Project: National Wind Energy Center Amount: $2,378,750 Sponsor: Al Green, Gene Green, Lee Bill: Energy and Water Project: Center for Clean Fuels and Power Generation Amount: $475,750 Sponsor: Lee and Ted Poe As best I can recall, I came to UH in January 1978 to teach law. In fall 1989 I took an interim assignment to revive the African American Studies Program. I did that continuously through fall 1990, which was for 3 semesters and a summer. In 1991 I was appointed interim Vice President for Student Affairs and, later that year, Vice President for Student Affairs. In l998 the Vice Chancellorâs title was added. In March 2011 I physically moved into my current office as Vice President for Community Relations & Institutional Access. At no time in any of these positions have I been involved, directly or indirectly, in securing Congressional earmarks for the University of Houston, nor have my duties and responsibilities in any way involved securing Congressional earmarks.

  • TMO Call to Action on Rental Assistance
    The Metropolitan Organization (TMO) Call to Action Tell Senators Cornyn and Cruz and members of Congress to support Rent Assistance in the next stimulus bill This week the US Congress is deciding what will be funded in a stimulus bill that will be more than $1 Trillion. The House passed the $3 Trillion HEROES Act two months ago (HR 6800) which set aside $100 Billion for Rent Assistance and $75 Billion for Mortgage Relief. The Senate is proposing a much smaller stimulus bill and they currently do not plan any rent assistance. Here are some reasons why TMO supports rent assistance: • Its immoral and unhealthy to force families into homelessness during a global pandemic. • More than half of Houston families are renters. • In a recent survey, over 40% of Texas renters were unsure they could pay August rent. • Each day hundreds of area families are being evicted or self-evicting and doubling up in apartments of family and friends—one reason why there is so much community spread of COVID in neighborhoods with many apartment complexes. • The CARES Act has had a moratorium on evictions/foreclosures on rental properties with mortgages guaranteed by the federal government, but that moratorium ends July 25. Contact Senators Cornyn and Cruz and your members of Congress and ask them to support funding for rent assistance for the most vulnerable families affected by COVID.
