He paved the way for generations of us to walk into courtrooms, practice law, and use it to fight for our communities. Today, we honor a giant who opened doors for so many of us.

59 years ago today, Thurgood Marshall was sworn in as the first Black justice on the United States Supreme Court. As a Black lawyer, his legacy means a lot to me.

We talked about the Muhammad Ali Index, which measures compassion in cities across the world. And Lonnie's work to carry Muhammad's legacy forward by bringing people together and encouraging us to care for our neighbors. Grateful to Lonnie for the conversation and for continuing the Champ's legacy.

It was an honor to sit down in Houston with Lonnie Ali, a dedicated philanthropist and the widow of the late Muhammad Ali. Muhammad Ali left his mark on our city, from his historic fights at the Astrodome to his stand against the Vietnam War.

Rest in power to a phenomenal public servant. www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/tex...

Congressman Christian D. Menefee @menefee.house.gov · 24/09/2026

A public servant who knew exactly which levers of power to pull to get stuff done for his community, and he did so every time the doors of the Capitol opened. A leader who fought so that every Texan could have a roof over their head, good health care, and a quality education.

Saddened to hear of the passing of former State Representative Garnet Coleman. He was an institution in both Houston and at the Capitol in Austin.

Fox News asked me about those $5,000 checks Trump has promised, so I gave them the truth: You’re not getting them. Trump can keep making promises he can’t deliver. I’m going to keep telling folks the truth.

We need an independent investigation immediately. We need the full facts about what happened.

Just months after Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was murdered by an ICE agent right here in Houston, we’re hearing reports of another ICE shooting in Austin. That’s unacceptable. ICE has shown us time and again that we cannot simply take their word for what happened. They have no credibility.

"The Trump family has turned the presidency into a side hustle." Watch @menefee.house.gov name names while he calls out the Trump administration's rampant corruption. Oversight Dems will hold them accountable.

Trump is in the White House while his family is cashing in, and Americans are getting crushed by the cost of groceries, gas, & rent. I serve on the @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social Committee. My job is to follow the money, expose the corruption, and hold them accountable. And I’ll continue to do so.

Republicans canceled votes AGAIN. For everyone else in this country, when you have a job to do, you’re expected to show up and get it done. Congress should be no different. The American people sent us here to work. Republicans keep canceling votes instead. It’s pathetic.

Houston no sería Houston sin nuestras comunidades hispanas y latinas. Desde el East End hasta cada rincón de nuestra ciudad, generaciones de familias han ayudado a construir la cultura, los negocios, los vecindarios y el espíritu que hacen de Houston un lugar tan especial.

¡Feliz Mes de la Herencia Hispana! Houston es la mejor ciudad del mundo gracias a la gente que la llama hogar.

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! Houston is the greatest city in the world because of the people who call it home. Houston would not be Houston without our Hispanic and Latino communities.

President Obama wore a tan suit, and Republicans acted like the sky was falling. Now, Trump and his family are making billions from shady business deals while he sits in the White House, and Republicans in Congress suddenly have nothing to say.

Grateful to have joined thousands of volunteers packing meals at Fertitta Center, as a part of a nationwide push to feed our community and honor the lives lost 25 years ago on 9/11.

Congressman Christian D. Menefee @menefee.house.gov · 11/09/2026

May we never forget those we lost, the families who still carry that loss, and the courage and sacrifice we witnessed that day.

25 years ago today, our nation was changed forever. Today, we remember the 2,977 lives taken on September 11, 2001, and we honor the firefighters, police officers, first responders, and everyday Americans who ran toward danger to help others.

Congressman Christian D. Menefee @menefee.house.gov · 10/09/2026

The Constitution gives Congress and the states authority over our elections. The President can’t just take that power for himself.

Trump doesn’t get to make up his own election laws. I joined more than 250 current & former members of Congress in a brief to the Supreme Court making clear that Trump’s mail-voting order is unconstitutional.

Proud to spend the weekend with our union workers and stand with them in the fight for good jobs and fair wages. Happy Labor Day!

Congressman Christian D. Menefee @menefee.house.gov · 07/09/2026

There’s no better way to spend Labor Day weekend than with the folks who keep TX-18 moving. From my grandfather, a longshoreman, to my sister, a public school teacher, unions are central to my family’s story and the backbone of our economy.

Congress has the power to act on behalf of our communities. Republicans want to surrender that power to protect their crooked Court. I am absolutely against this, and I’ll keep calling out every Republican effort to rip power away from the American people and hand it to Trump.

Congressman Christian D. Menefee @menefee.house.gov · 02/09/2026

Republicans want to rewrite the Constitution to protect a Supreme Court drowning in corruption and ethics scandals. The same Court that gutted voting rights and ripped away abortion rights.

The destruction in Nepal is heartbreaking. Thousands of people remain missing, while the death toll continues to rise. My thoughts and prayers are with the Nepalese community, the families searching for loved ones, and all those who have lost family and entire villages from the devastating flood.

How desperate can you be? Trump is jeopardizing millions of Americans’ right to vote by mail. This whistleblower report from a federal USPS official is disturbing. An untested tracking system should not be putting Americans’ right to vote at risk.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was part of our Houston community. His family deserves answers about what happened to him. But Trump’s so-called immigration “experts” can’t even answer basic questions about his murder.

62 years ago, the Food Stamp Act made a promise that no American should go hungry & made our country stronger because of it. Now, Trump is ripping food assistance away from families, children, seniors, & people w/ disabilities. I’ll keep fighting to protect SNAP. No one in America should go hungry.

Houston, we have a major storm heading our way. The US National Weather Service has put Houston under a flood watch warning this Tuesday through Wednesday. Hopefully it passes, but it's important to stay prepared. To report an outage, call 3-1-1 or visit houston311.org.

Embarrassing. Trump may get his ballroom because the judges he picked keep siding with him. People don’t need a ballroom at the White House. We need affordable health care and groceries. It’s time to reform the Supreme Court.
