Houston City Council votes to name Bush Airport terminal after Sheila Jackson Lee

The naming won’t take effect immediately due to an executive order dating back to 2003. Erica Lee Carter said the move represents “a lasting reminder of her dedication, her legacy, and her unwavering commitment to Houston and the United States.”
