Guns are leading cause of death for children in the U.S. + safe storage efforts save lives every day. CM Kamin continues to tackle gun violence, lifting up orgs like Lock Arms for Life for Gun Safety Awareness Month. LAFL is instrumental in championing safe storage across TX.

CM Kamin unveiled 2 #DistC funded quiet rooms alongside Houston Organization of Public Employees (HOPE) and City Depts. for 911 operators. Previously used for storage, these rooms are now spaces where operators on the frontlines can practice self care. Grateful to unions making this possible ahead of #LaborDay

Happy #LaborDay! Today we commemorate the sacrifices countless working class Americans undertook to secure basic privileges and rights we all benefit from today. This week I stood with our local unions to recognize their tireless advocacy and service to the community.
