If you see Jane Fonda knocking on people's doors this weekend, it's not for Halloween.
The Academy Award-winning actress will be block walking with Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo and the Texas Organizing Project Pact this weekend, ahead of the Nov. 8 election.
The event begins Saturday at 1 p.m. at Mason Park in the East End, according to the campaign. It appears to be part of a tour by the Jane Fonda Climate PAC that Fonda launched in March.....
The PAC endorsed Hidalgo, with the explanation that during her first term in office, "Hidalgo has prioritized tackling root causes and direct impacts of climate change and air pollution."
"While governing through multiple disasters, including Winter Storm Uri and various chemical explosions — time and again the judge and her team have invested in the communities most at risk, advanced green infrastructure, focused on preventing and mitigating future disasters and set a model for the rest of the nation as a renewable energy corridor."
