Beta Testers Wanted!

We’re excited about the upcoming release of John Houston’s book Return to the Sunlight. On Thursday, June 5, we are hosting a beta reading of the book, which means those who attend will receive a first look at the book. Attendees will have an opportunity to share their thoughts before we place the book in the market. This is an extremely important part of our process, and we are looking forward to hearing what you have to say.

Senate Bill 5142 Becomes Law today in Olympia!

From Marisa Houston: And that’s how a bill becomes law! My dad and family, alongside Senator Hasegawa in Washington State worked hard to get SB5142 passed and today the Houston Eminent Domain Fairness Act was signed into law by Governor Ferguson! This doesn’t mean my family’s fight for what was taken is done – but what it does mean is that what happened to my Grandparents won’t happen to anyone else again in Washington. BIG WIN FOR THE HOUSTON FAMILY LEGACY!
