As I step forward to serve the unexpired term left by my mother, I recognize the profound responsibility that comes with this role. It’s not just about filling a seat; it’s about honoring a legacy of leadership, empowerment, and community service that she exemplified.

Today, I want to make it clear: If Judge Lina Hidalgo chooses not to run for re-election, I, Erica Lee Carter, will be running for Harris County Judge. This community means everything to me, and I’m ready to step up and lead on the issues that matter most to Harris County.

I am keeping the families affected by the catastrophic flooding in Texas in my heartfelt prayers. As a educator and former Congresswoman, I am truly heartbroken to see children missing and communities suffering through such devastating events. Let us come together as Texans!.

President @joebiden praised Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee for her tireless work year after year, consistently filing the bill to make Juneteenth a national holiday, and for her success in 2021 when she finally brought it to his desk for approval. #Juneteenth

I’m honored to join President @JoeBiden in Galveston today, where it all began, to celebrate the resilience of Black Americans. Juneteenth is now a time to reflect, celebrate, and continue the fight for justice. Thank you, Mom, for your unwavering dedication your legacy lives on.

Congratulations to my former colleague, Congresswoman @BarbaraLee_CA on your victorious win as Mayor-elect of Oakland. I know if my mother, Sheila Jackson Lee, were still with us, she’d be in Oakland standing by your side as you’re sworn in. Congratulations again, my friend.

Oakland! This evening’s results are encouraging. I decided to run for Mayor knowing that Oakland is a deeply divided City–and I ran to unite our community. We worked hard every day to earn every vote! Thanks to you, in our 100 day campaign our Faith, Labor and Business

A proud day as the late Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee was honored with Terminal E at Bush Intercontinental Airport named in her memory. She served nearly 30 years & helped secure over $125M in federal funds for Houston airports. Her legacy lives on. @JacksonLeeTX18

Six years ago, @CoryBooker gave my mom her flowers, and she gave him his for being a dynamic leader in the Senate. I know she’s watching from heaven, so proud as he makes history and causes good trouble. The Late Congresswoman Jackson Lee would’ve been right there by his side.
