Firefighters reject proposed contract
Houston firefighters have rejected the labor agreement negotiated by their leadership and the city's team by nearly a 2-1 margin.
The overwhelming rejection of the deal represents a setback for Mayor White, whose public comments at a sensitive point in the negotiations may have tipped the deal too far in the city's favor for HFD rank and file to stomach.
The Chronicle's Matt Stiles reports that it would have been the city's first contract with HFD since 1999.
