Letitia Plummer was raised in a multicultural household, an experience that has shaped everything she does.
As a graduate of the prestigious historically Black Spelman College and of the Baylor College of Dentistry, she followed in her father’s footsteps and is a practicing dentist and small business owner.
As a City of Houston Council Member, Letitia has worked on several initiatives. During COVID-19, she successfully engaged top Houston Chef’s to feed seniors and food insecure families across Houston through her ‘Feed the Need Program’ and has since been working on long term, sustainable solutions for food deserts. She introduced comprehensive Policing Reform as part of Houston’s budget amendments and has since continued to be an advocate for criminal justice reform. In addition, she has worked extensively in the community to provide immediate assistance to underserved and vulnerable residents impacted by Winter Storm Uri and has been recognized by several community-based, grassroots organizations for her efforts. Most recently she proposed an Apartment Inspection Reform ordinance to improve the quality of life and habitability of Houston’s tenants.
