The mayor wants anyone associated with the city to agree not to post anything negative about Kemah online, but council members fight for their First Amendment rights.
KEMAH, Texas -- There was high drama Wednesday night at Kemah's City Council meeting. The mayor and council members are at odds over several issues including social media, guns, and money.
Mayor Carl Joiner has been adding the same controversial issues to the agenda again and again. Only for council members to vote them down every time. Each issue basically breaks down five to one. Mudslinging on social media is also an issue. The mayor wants anyone associated with the city to agree not to post anything negative about Kemah online, but council members said they aren't backing down from using their First Amendment rights.
"It doesn't look like, over the next 10 months, they're gonna allow me to move the city forward. We'll see," Joiner said.
