Erin Foster Blogs for Brigid

Posted on Blog by Erin Foster · February 07, 2014 10:03 AM · 1 reaction

It’s because of her experience that Brigid understood how critical this situation was.  It’s because of her compassion for the working poor that she wanted to help and it’s because of her vast network of contacts that she was able to get something done quickly. That's why I am committed to helping Brigid win and I hope you will join me by signing up to volunteer, attending and event and/or ordering a yard sign!

Julie Wickert Blogs for Brigid

Posted on Blog by Julie Wickert · January 30, 2014 4:41 PM

JulieMy name is Julie Wickert. I’m a home-town Austin girl and a small business owner. I’m also privileged to be among Brigid Shea’s many friends here in Austin. One day, Brigid and I were talking about work and career. I learned then that her guiding principle in making career decisions is to always seek the spot where she can make the biggest difference.

Author Sarah Bird Blogs for Brigid

Posted on Blog by Sarah Bird · January 23, 2014 6:45 AM

Sarah Bird is a nationally acclaimed author who calls Austin home.

"Many say that affordability is just too big a problem to fix. That it’s inevitable that Austin will keep growing and keep getting more expensive and that there’s nothing anyone can do about it. I remember when they were saying a version of that about Barton Springs. That growth is inevitable and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Aren’t you all glad that Brigid Shea didn’t believe that back then?"

Susan Longley Blogs for Brigid

Posted on Blog by Susan Longley · January 02, 2014 10:35 AM

I’m Susan Longley. I’m owner of The Longley Group, a consulting firm in Austin. For years, I have enjoyed taking an active part in Texas’ political process as a proud Democratic volunteer and fundraiser. I’m known for having a keen mind for local and state politics. And, like so many of you, I care deeply about the great state of Texas and its capital we have the privilege to call home.

I mention this so that you have a sense of my determination to ensure that the most qualified and dedicated candidates make it into office at every level of Texas government.

I fully support Brigid Shea for Travis County Commissioner, Precinct 2.

Diane Counts Blogs for Brigid

Posted on Blog by Diane Counts · December 19, 2013 10:54 AM

"This is the first time I’ve volunteered for a public servant. I never realized what it takes to run a campaign. Usually, I research each candidate on the web, read the newspaper or watch a debate on television, and then I vote. Not anymore. Volunteers are paramount to a campaign so I urge all you civic-minded citizens to visit Brigid’s campaign headquarters to meet her and the staff and give an hour or more of your time, pick up a yard sign or make a donation. You won’t be disappointed."
