AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Airport Funding Fight: Gov. Greg Abbott ordered reviews of grants tied to Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental and Dallas-Fort Worth airports over Muslim ritual washing facilities, arguing they favor a religion and could be “illegal,” after Houston’s ablution area opened in 2024 and DFW shelved a similar expansion. Election & Courts: A Fifth Circuit ruling restored Texas mail-in ballot ID requirements, adding pressure to election rules heading into the 2026 cycle. Surveillance Backlash: Hood County shut down and covered Flock license-plate cameras over privacy and “warrantless tracking” concerns, following reports of alleged misuse elsewhere. Data Breach Alerts: Class-action firms are investigating breaches at Lone Star Community Health Center/Aesto Health (250,130 Texans) and Baylor Genetics in Houston, raising new patient privacy questions. Border/Defense: Trump ordered the Pentagon to scale back joint exercises with South Korea, citing South Korea’s stance on Iran denuclearization. Local Tragedy: East Bernard ISD said athletic director/head coach Jeremeny Jenkins and his wife, teacher Brandy Jenkins, were killed in a car crash. Sports & Politics Crossover: Texas Senate race chatter continues as campaigns trade attacks, including “Epstein” references tied to candidate rhetoric.
