Texas Communities Turn Out in Large Numbers
Cities across Texas reported strong participation. Austin hosted one of the state’s largest gatherings, with thousands marching from City Hall to Auditorium Shores. Demonstrations were also held in Dallas, Fort Worth, Denton, Frisco, and Carrollton, where crowds filled public squares and downtown areas throughout the afternoon.
In the Houston region, multiple events took place in Kingwood, Pearland, Cypress, Sugar Land, Katy, and The Woodlands. Houston City Hall served as a major hub, drawing steady turnout from residents and local organizations.
Nearby communities also joined in solidarity. Victoria and La Grange held their own rallies, aligning with the national call for peaceful civic engagement.

A Nationwide Day of Action
Organizers of the “No Kings” movement reported millions of participants nationwide, continuing the rapid growth seen over the past year. The first national action in June 2025 drew more than five million people, followed by over seven million in October 2025. Yesterday’s turnout marked the movement’s largest showing to date.
The movement describes itself as a mass, nonviolent effort focused on civic participation, constitutional accountability, and collective action. Demonstrations across the country included marches, rallies, voter‑registration efforts, and community outreach.

Local Organizers Encouraged by Participation
Local organizers said they were pleased with the turnout in Cuero and the level of engagement from residents. They noted that rural communities play an important role in national conversations and emphasized the importance of peaceful, community‑driven action.
The “No Kings” movement is expected to continue organizing events throughout the year as participation grows across Texas and the nation.
CUERO, TX-The clock is ticking, and Cuero residents are down to their final opportunity to weigh in on the City’s Draft Comprehensive Plan — a document that will shape how Cuero grows, builds, invests, and protects its quality of life for years to come.
The draft has been available since January. Many have already taken the time to read it, question it, and offer thoughtful suggestions. But MOST RESIDENTS haven’t — and now, the deadline is here. And silence now means letting others decide what Cuero’s future looks like.
This is the moment to speak up.
A Plan That Will Shape Cuero’s Future
The Comprehensive Plan isn’t just another city document. It influences decisions about:
• Housing and neighborhoods
• Infrastructure and utilities
• Parks and recreation
• Transportation and traffic
• Economic development
• Land use and growth
• Community character and long‑term vision
If you care about how Cuero looks, feels, and functions in the next decade, this is your chance to help steer that direction.
The Deadline Is Here
The City’s survey closes April 3 at midnight.
After that, the next chance to comment won’t come until the full draft plan is released this summer — long after key decisions are shaped.
Cuero’s future shouldn’t be shaped by a handful of voices. It should be shaped by the people who live here, raise families here, and care about what this community becomes.
If you want a say, take a few minutes and make it count.
This is your last chance — for now — to influence the direction of Cuero’s future.
Your Voice Matters — But Only If You Use It
Too often, people assume decisions are made without them. But here, the City is asking — directly — for your input. Ignoring that invitation means letting others decide Cuero’s future for you.
If you want better roads, stronger neighborhoods, more opportunities for families, or a clearer vision for growth, then take a few minutes to review the draft and complete the survey.
This is Cuero’s plan.
This is your community.
And this is your last chance — for now — to help shape it.
The 2026 Cuero Lady Gobblers softball team enters tonight’s district matchup riding a wave of momentum, strengthened by a historic milestone and a string of strong performances on the field.
On March 25, senior standout Julianna Cox officially broke the Cuero High School career hits record, surpassing the previous mark and reaching 164 career hits. Cox’s consistency at the plate has anchored the Lady Gobblers’ offense, and her record‑setting achievement adds a major highlight to the program’s 2026 campaign.
Cuero has shown steady improvement throughout the season, most recently delivering a dominant 16–1 victory over San Antonio Kennedy in district play. The win showcased the team’s balanced approach — aggressive hitting, disciplined baserunning, and dependable defensive execution.
The Lady Gobblers’ roster features a strong mix of returning talent and rising contributors, including L. Dobesh, Reagan Reitz, M. Trevino, Natalyn Milliorn, and Elizabeth Hernandez. Coaches say the group has continued to sharpen its rhythm as district competition intensifies.

As the season progresses, Cuero remains focused on consistency, teamwork, and capitalizing on the excitement surrounding Cox’s historic achievement.
First pitch is set for 6 p.m., and fans are encouraged to show their support as the Lady Gobblers continue their push through district play.
