KILLEEN, Texas The Killeen City Council voted unanimously against flying the Juneteenth flag over city hall to commemorate the holiday, according to a Killeen spokesperson. 
The vote on May 25 came after Ronnie Russell with the Innovative Black Chamber of Commerce sought to have the Juneteenth flag flown from June 18 to June 20. Juneteenth, which is short for June Nineteenth, marks the end of slavery not only in Texas but the United States in 1865. ....

Killeen council rejects resolution to fly Juneteenth flag at City Hall


The Killeen City Council on Tuesday voted unanimously against a resolution  that would have allowed the city to fly the Juneteenth flag at City Hall June 18-20.
The NAACP-Killeen Branch spoke out against the resolution during citizens comments, expressing concerns that it would open Pandora’s box and allow other flags to be flown at City Hall as well.
“Flying the Juneteenth flag would make it where other groups and organizations could make the same request of their flags to be flown. And yes, I’m even talking about the Confederate flag or the LGBTQ flag,” Samuel Powell said during citizens’ comments on Tuesday. Powell made the comments on behalf of NAACP-Killeen Branch President TaNeika Driver-Moultrie. ....

Vote for election review process not finalized on Tuesday; total altered


When the vote was called on Tuesday evening to continue looking into municipal election issues, the six council members present pushed their button to cast their ballot.
The screen inside council chambers flashed, “voted” next to every member’s name except for Councilmember Debbie Nash-King, who had left early due to a prior commitment, and Mayor Jose Segarra, who only votes when there is a tie.
City Secretary Lucy Aldrich said, “There’s a tie, Mayor Segarra. You need to vote.”
“I vote ‘no,’ so let’s move on,” the mayor said. “Thank you. I’m glad it was a tie.” ....
