Friends,

Today, San Antonio decides.

After months of listening to our community, one truth stands out: people are tired—tired of excuses, tired of empty promises, and tired of a city government that can’t seem to solve our most basic problems.

The poverty in our city is not just a statistic—it’s the root cause of the crime, the homelessness, the lack of opportunity that’s holding us back. And the truth is, current leadership has had years to fix it and hasn’t. We can’t afford to keep heading in the same direction.

Today is decision day. Today is the day we decide our fate, our direction, and the kind of future we want for San Antonio.

For me, this is not about political ambition or using the office of mayor as a stepping stone. I’m doing this because I love San Antonio—and I see a city with massive potential being mismanaged.

This is my home. I want to retire here. I want my children to return here. But they won’t if the best jobs keep going to Austin, Dallas, and Houston—along with our kids and grandkids.

We need to change course. We need leadership that can compete, attract investment, and solve real problems—not talk around them. I bring that experience. I’ve done it before, and I’ll do it again. I’m not just promising results—I’ve delivered them.

Today, I ask for your vote. Laura and I will head to the polls this morning. We ask you to please do the same and get out to vote and make your voice heard!

Let’s take back our city. Let’s stop the excuses. Let’s build a San Antonio that works—for everyone.
