The argument was over Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo's proposed penny tax, which would help fund childcare.

Hidalgo invited several children to attend the meeting, which devolved into commissioners arguing with and reprimanding Hidalgo.
"You said motion," Commissioner Adrian Garcia said.
"No, I didn't," Hidalgo responded.
"Yes, you did," Garcia said.
"OK, well, I take it back," Hidalgo replied.
"This is why education is important," Garcia said, ending the exchange.
The fight over the proposed penny tax ended with the agenda item failing, and after, her fellow court members slapped her with a censure.
"I would like to move to censure County Judge Lina Hidalgo for a failure to conduct herself," Ramsey said.
Now, Ramsey is asking if they should take it a step further, asking if Hidalgo should be removed from office.
His statement mentions what he calls unpredictable absences from meetings, profanity in public meetings, and outbursts with colleagues.
But Hidalgo stands by how she acted on Thursday.
"I was totally baffled, and I guess I was giving a last shot like this is all I got," Hidalgo said.
Ramsey said he feels it's the commissioners court's responsibility to "explore every option for ensuring our meetings remain professional and productive, including, if warranted, the potential removal of a court member."
According to Texas state law, the county judge can be removed for incompetency or misconduct, but Ramsey acknowledged such a move would "involve significant, important, legal and procedural steps."
ABC13 reached out to Judge Hidalgo regarding Ramsey's comments, but there has been no response.
Eyewitness News also reached out to all the commissioners on the court. Rodney Ellis' office responded, saying he does not have a comment.
Commissioner Lesley Briones said, "The strength and beauty of our democracy is that the people have the right to select their representatives. The decision to remove or keep an elected official is one that should be made by the voters through the electoral process."
