It’s official! After eight months of hard work, we’ve filed to run for Mayor of San Antonio. From day one, this campaign has never been just about me—it’s about us. That was never more true than when Anna and I (plus baby Altamirano) made the trip to City Hall to officially

Bookmarking for when these candidates tell you they support affordable housing
The initial vote to deny an affordable housing project with childcare facilities was a mistake. But to justify it by saying those funds would stay in SA when there was no guarantee only makes things worse. Being on council means having tough conversations and voting in ways that

For those keeping score, that’s: ✅ Losing $20m in tax credits ✅ 2 affordable housing projects lost ✅ Ignore SHIP guidelines re NOAH But yeah, keep telling us why all that “experience” is necessary to be Mayor #noregrets
It's an outcome that housing advocates warned against when four council members blocked an apartment complex on the city's North Side.

“We support affordable housing when it’s convenient. We support affordable housing when we don’t hear too many complaints from the neighbors,” @JohnCourageD9 /@CourageforSA added, using the acronym for not-in-my-backyard: “Are we NIMBYs ourselves?”

Beto Altamirano 🤝 Affordable Housing
Affordable housing has been one of the top issues brought up by residents during our campaign’s listening tour. Tomorrow’s council vote on the Vista Park project comes just a week after this same council approved a deal that will ultimately lower the number of affordable housing

Folks, it doesn't have to be this hard. Also, friendly reminder that the FY25 proposed budget includes $36m in cuts, so don't let anyone tell you it "looks great" when it's already a struggle to get the basics right w/ a budget surplus.
This is unacceptable for any city let alone the 7th largest in the nation. As Mayor I will use my experience leveraging technology to improve how residents interact with their government, and will ensure infrastructure projects like this are planned and designed WITH the

Last night’s Jefferson Neighborhood Association meeting was a powerful moment—it was the first time Mayoral candidates shared the stage together in this election. It was great to see such a large turnout of engaged residents, many who I met while block walking over the weekend,

Team @betoaltamirano puts in the work đź’Ş
Hats off to all the savvy politicos in the Jefferson Neighborhood Association. They welcomed the mayoral hopefuls to their meeting tonight - 5 months before filing opens- and got even more candidates than they invited. Plus a film crew. https://t.co/BWqmCTbaEX🙌

Can City Council members park “wherever the hell” they want to, as @MannyforSA asserted during Thursday’s council meeting? City staff’s answer — when we asked whether elected officials could park wherever whenever — was that the privilege has limits. https://t.co/PHozmYH4w7
