Happy New Year! Hopefully Lowry will exit the political arena and go back to paying his bills and taxes.

In 2025 Joseph Lowry made a partial payment of back taxes owed to Galveston County. According to the tax office he owed $22,460 for 2021, 2022, and 2023. On Jan 6, 2025 he made a partial payment in cash. He still owes for 2024 and 2025. Unfortunately he had more tax problem from the IRS back in 2023 and 2025 as well as the State of Texas in 2020. Lowry has had delinquent tax problems on the County, State and Federal level.

According to records provided by Galveston County the IRS filed a lien against his company, Six Brothers Concrete Pumping for over $16,000. In 2025 a lien was filed for over $67,000. Both liens were released by June of 2025.

But wait! There’s more! In 2020 the State of Texas filed a lien for delinquent taxes for over $10,000. He eventually paid this in late 2021. According to this document he owed over $2,500 in city taxes which completes the cycle of delinquent taxes on the Federal, State, County, and City level. Lowry likes to flash around wads of cash like he did to ABC 13 to pay his team of investigators and lawyers but he doesn’t have enough to pay his damn taxes like everyone else.

It’s CLEAT. Combined Law Enforcement Associations of Texas.

Recently CLEAT, specifically the La Marque Police Association, was referenced in a fake email submitted by City Council Member Joseph Lowry. Mr Chicken Little, submitted this email to Council during executive session with concerns about extending the contract of Interim City Manager Holly. As the Galveston Daily News stated, the LMPA didn’t write the email. It is believed an investigation is ongoing as it should be. The individual who sent the email to Lowry, Impoliceassociation@gmail.com, immediately deleted the account.

CLEAT is now fishing for records between the former Police Chief, who resigned in disgrace, Cesar Garcia and Christine Turner. Cesar was the City Manager and resigned in Jan of 2025. Christine Turner is the Financial Director for La Marque. One thing is for sure. CLEAT is for CLEAT. Whatever they are fishing for with their Public Information Request 25-541 is in defense of CLEAT or the La Marque Police Association who has cuddled up with Joseph Lowry.

Galveston Police Detective Anthony C. Rogers and President of the LMPA is involved with Lowry. That can’t be good. Happy fishing!

Do yourself a favor and research who filed the recall against Mayor Keith Bell.

City Councilman Chicken Little, Lowry filed a recall petition and is now soliciting signatures. If he can obtain the required number of valid signatures the City will spent a considerable amount of time and money to put the recall to the voters. This isn’t the first time Lowry has submitted a recall petition. In 2022 prior to being elected to office, he filed a recall of Bell. It failed. Then he filed a recall against Council Member Yancy. It also failed.

The Yancy recall had some questionable signatures gained by telling those who signed, the petition was to keep Yancy on Council. Lowry told Click2Houston: ““I got wind of it yesterday and they terminated the employee. He was terminated and they threw out a hundred signatures that he had collected just to be safe,” said Lowry.”

La Marque residents might want to review Lowry’s past. I’ve listed 20 reasons that should concern everyone including the Domestic Violence Protective Order that was placed on him. Let me add a few more:

• Lowry filed a “Assumed Name Record Certificate of Ownership for Unincorporated Business or Profession”, in other words, a DBA (Doing Business As) for two individuals without their consent. This is against the law.
• Lowry has continued making sexually suggestive comments towards city employees including giving a female employee a cake with “Recall these balls”, referring to a female city employee as a “snatch’, and referring to a female city council member describing his small ball sack.
• Lowry has been accused of filing a false “terrorist threat” complaint against a citizen of La Marque resulting in a swat action.
• Lowry has posted veiled threats towards members of the public
• Lowry submitted a fake email from a law enforcement organizations to retaliate against the City Manager. There is an ongoing investigation and the organization has disavowed being involved.
• He still owes back taxes for 2024 although has paid his delinquent taxes for 2021, 2022, and 2023.
• Lowry harassed members of the community at a restaurant (Video)

Mayor Bell has filed a response to the fake allegations of the recall petition. If by chance he can get the signatures I could see legal action to invalidate the petition due to false information presented to the voters. We shall see….

As reported earlier Civil Case #202107817 TOMCZAK, MARTIN vs. SIX BROTHERS CONCRETE PUMPING LLC filed in Harris County was “Dismissed for Want of Prosecution. From what I read the plaintiff was unable to attend a hearing because of technical difficulties. A motion was filed and granted to reinstate the suit against Councilman Joseph Lowry the owner of Six Brothers Concrete.

The case concerns a non compete clause signed by Martin Tomczak. According to the court documents Martin claims Lowry threatened him and potential employers with lawsuits based upon this non compete document leaving Tomczak unemployed. One of the documents submitted to the court is a list of texts and correspondence from Lowry. You can read the entire 27 pages here. 

It will be interesting to attend the trial.

Whose leg do you have to hump to get charged with sexual harassment at the workplace?

If you had sent a cookie cake to an employee with “Recalls These Balls”, or referred to a female employee as a “snatch”, or wrote a poem directed at a member of City Council referring to your ball sack, you would have been fired. Immediately. And possibly charged with sexual harassment. Yet so far law enforcement on all levels have done nothing against La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry contributing to a hostile work environment.

WTF are they waiting for? Lowry has been warned by the city attorneys to refrain from using sexually suggestive language towards city employees, yet he did it again. Twice. Once using the slur in a response to his Lousy News Network post and again in a video. (Comment is at 34:24). Yet nothing is happening and there is no main stream media attention to his actions.

This is gross behavior. It is illegal behavior. It’s beneath a human being. It needs to be addressed. He needs to be removed from Council. This just can’t go on any longer. 2026 needs to be the end of the line for Lowry.

Do something.
