A Note from Andy

I cannot thank you enough for your support of our campaign and for fighting by my side over the past year. I am so proud of the progress we continue to make in Travis County.

We’ve faced many tough challenges together—from protecting our community during COVID-19 to recovering from the catastrophic winter storm. Because of you, we have risen together to meet the needs of Travis County. We have focused our work on delivering on the priorities most important to working families, small businesses, and our neighbors in need. We are working to keep our community more safe by taking reasonable measures against COVID-19, expanding opportunities for working families like access to child care and workforce development, and increasing investments in mental and behavioral health and affordable housing.

Despite the progress we’ve made, we still have a long way to go. Too many of our neighbors are unable to access basic health care in the middle of a pandemic, not to mention basic mental health care and substance use treatment. Families are being priced out of their homes as paychecks fail to keep up with the rising cost of rent, mortgages, and the cost of necessities. We need bold criminal justice reform that keeps us safe by focusing on serious crime, prioritizes restorative justice, and invests in things that will keep us all safe and reduce crime like good jobs, access to health care, and affordable housing.

I know this movement—our movement—is up to the challenge because our vision for the future is grounded in investing in the people and communities who call Travis County home.

​​Thank you for being a part of this movement. As long as we’re in this together, we can transform our county and our country.

Thank you,

Andy
