Fox News
Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner is facing what could develop into a reduction in his authority, according to a report.
The groups represent a broad-based coalition that includes the Houston firefighters union, the Harris County Republican Party and the Houston chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, the Houston Chronicle reported. If the referendum reaches the ballot, voters would have a chance to decide whether Turner’s authority should be scaled back, and City Council power enhanced, according to the report.More Related News
