URGENT: Call & email the Cameron County commissioners and urge them to (1) grant the community an additional public hearing because two commissioners were absent on June 2, and (2) give the public a 30-day notice of a hearing (Texas Law) and the vote. Moreover, we urge the County to listen to the community and reject a massive, multimillion-dollar tax break for Saronic Technologies, an AI Weapons Boat Manufacturer.

Did you call or email the commissioners?

Read more about the shady corporation trying to build the America First oil refinery in Brownsville, TX.

It's shameful that the City of Brownsville, TX - Municipal Government and the Port of Brownsville Commission are supporting this oil refinery project.

An obscure Texas firm secretly connected to the president’s son said it received at least $100 million from Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries. At the same time, the Ambani family secured major policy wins from the Trump administration.
