On Friday’s Houston Matters: Houston community members have harsh words for Gov. Greg Abbott after he advocated for a state takeover of the HISD board. We hear some reactions. And, just a day after being sworn into office, newly elected Houston-area Congresswoman Sylvia Garcia talks about her priorities — and anticipated challenges — for the upcoming session.
Also this hour: Dr. Peter Hotez debunks the myth that vaccines cause autism. He’s written a book about his own experience with his daughter called Vaccines Did Not Cause Rachel's Autism.
Then, we break down The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week’s news.
And we invite our listeners to share their New Year’s resolutions.
