Election

BY BEN THOMPSON

*INCUMBENT

Austin City Council District 2

Why are you running for this office and what’s the central issue you’re hoping to address? I am seeking reelection to build on our progress over my first term in enhancing quality of life for District 2. Given the pivotal moment we are experiencing in Austin, it is crucial to have experienced and dedicated leaders guiding our city in providing quality, reliable city services.

Following years of increased property taxes and costs for city services, how would you aim to keep Austin affordable for residents? Addressing affordability is a top priority for our council. I’m proud to have launched the Displacement Prevention Community Navigator Program, linking vulnerable Austinites to vital services and resources. Additionally, I’ve spearheaded initiatives to make child care more affordable and accessible for everyone.
