Harris County amendment cuts $60,014 from an immigrant representation agreement running Oct. 2025–Oct. 2026.
Harris County Commissioners Court introduced this contract amendment on June 12, 2026. It asks the County Judge to sign a change to an existing agreement with the Galveston-Houston Immigrant Representation Project. The change cuts funding by $60,014 from the Immigration & Naturalization Services Fund. The Housing and Community Development Department oversees this agreement, which runs from October 10, 2025 through October 9, 2026.
Harris County funds legal help for immigrants through this contract. Cutting $60,014 changes how much money the Galveston-Houston Immigrant Representation Project receives to provide those services during the current agreement period.
