Today, Mayor John Whitmire testified before the Texas Senate Special Committee on Hurricane Preparedness, Recovery, and Electricity. After two major storms hit Houston this summer, power outages remain his administration's primary concern for this storm season. He emphasized the need for CenterPoint to improve and update its infrastructure, enhance communications with its paying customers, and use its funds proactively to withstand Houston's yearly weather events. Enough is enough. It's time to hold CenterPoint accountable.

CenterPoint Energy will be held accountable, but we must get the lights back on for all Houstonians first. Mayor John Whitmire asks Houstonians to welcome the CenterPoint and out-of-town line crews as they restore our power. He asks Houstonians to respect the work they are doing. Threatening or endangering these crews is not who we are as Houstonians. We are stronger together.
