The San Antonio business community understands the integral role our local elected officials play in ensuring San Antonio maintains a thriving economy. Civic engagement and participation in the political process is important to our community’s success. It is vital that we elect business-minded candidates to City Council who will support policies that help foster economic growth.
We know without a mayoral election or propositions on the ballot, it will be challenging to get voters to return to the polls for the second time in a matter of weeks. That is why it is critically important to get educated on candidates’ positions, get familiar with polling sites and voting hours, and spread the word about the importance of hitting those polls.
Your Chamber hosted Facebook Candidate Forums with candidates for Districts 1, 3, 5, and 9 on May 17 and May 21. To hear what the candidates had to say about key business issues, please click the links below:
