Melanie Miles
Continuing on in At Large #1 we have Melanie Miles, a board-certified family law attorney and member of the Harris County Sheriff’s Civil Service Commission. Miles has a degree in computer information systems and worked as a systems engineer for EDS and owned a consulting company of her own before going to law school. She was a member of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority in college where she became friends with someone named Kamala Harris. I didn’t ask about that in the interview but I did ask about other things, and you can hear it all here. Please note there was a brief WiFi issue that affected the audio during the call, but we got that cleared up.

I note that Erik Manning lists Ms. Miles as a Democrat. I knew her when she served for many years as a Republican precinct chair, on the state GOP executive committee, and as a GOP candidate for judge.
Very smart person. HPD does not use collective bargaining, they use meet and confer, which is a big difference. Interesting how she supports paying employees in accordance to the market, but that is exactly what the City of Houston took to the Supreme Court, so is she in conflict with that decision?
After Trump, any person with a sense of decency would run away from that cesspool that the Republican Party has become.
