Description
Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo and County Attorney Christian Menefee held a news conference Tuesday morning to announce a lawsuit against the Trump administration. The officials said the legal action is in response to what they describe as an unlawful reorganization of the federal government.
According to Hidalgo and Menefee, the restructuring efforts have already triggered mass layoffs across federal agencies and could lead to the closure of local Social Security field offices. They say these cuts also pose significant risks to emergency management operations as the region approaches hurricane season.
