Austin’s Platform
Real Solutions for Real Challenges
🏠 Affordable Housing
Austin housing is in crisis. Young families, teachers, and service workers can’t afford to live here anymore.
Our Plan: Build 5,000 affordable homes by 2030. Reform zoning to allow missing middle housing. Support down payment assistance for first-time buyers. Protect renters from displacement.
💼 Economic Opportunity
Austin’s economy must work for everyone, not just tech executives and investors.
Our Plan: Support small businesses with technical assistance and affordable space. Bring living wage jobs to neighborhoods left behind. Train workers for careers of the future. Ensure contractors pay prevailing wages.
🚌 Smart Transportation
Invest in rapid transit, not more highways. Reduce congestion while connecting neighborhoods.
Our Plan: Expand bus rapid transit citywide. Improve sidewalks and bike infrastructure. Increase transit-oriented development. Make sure transportation works for all, especially lower-income families.
🌍 Climate Leadership
Austin can lead Texas to a clean energy future while creating green jobs.
Our Plan: Reach carbon neutrality by 2040. Invest in solar and renewable energy jobs. Weatherize 10,000 homes. Protect our water resources from pollution.
