For 50 years, The Ensemble Theatre has brought African American stories to the stage and helped shape Houston’s cultural life. I joined its 50th Anniversary Gala as honorary chair to celebrate that legacy and the people who continue it.

Houston, we’re moving in the right direction. I joined United Airlines and Houston Airports to unveil Terminal B’s new North Concourse at Bush Airport, a major step in its transformation and a better experience for travelers. Let’s keep working.
