Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo is expected to return to work Monday after taking an extended medical leave due to depression in August.
Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo had a narrow lead early Wednesday morning in her bid to win a second term leading Texas most populous county.returned to work Monday after taking an extended medical leave due to depression in August.
“Judge Hidalgo’s absence from public office has prevented her and continues to prevent her from the lawful discharge of her duties as Harris County Judge,” the lawsuit reads. Hidalgo was elected as county judge in 2018 after she unexpectedly ousted Ed Emmett, a Republican who had enjoyed bipartisan support. Since then, Hidalgo has built a national profile as she led the county’s efforts to combat the rising number of COVID-19 cases during the early days of the pandemic and became one of the state’s most prominent Democrats — as well as a major target for Texas Republicans.
I am feeling great and looking forward to returning on Monday, October 2, 2023. Thanks to the incredible medical team that has cared for me over the past several weeks, I feel so much stronger than I have ever been.
