The Brownsville City Commission voted unanimously to dissolve the LGBTQ+ Task Force.
City Attorney Will Trevino warned the commission that maintaining the Task Force puts the city at "grave risk of losing the $41 million in grants that we receive from the federal government".
To continue advocacy efforts, Commissioners approved the immediate creation of the "One City Committee," a new establishment designed to promote positive "human relations and equitable outcomes and opportunities in all aspects of community life" for all minority communities.
