Wonder if the complaint had the unintended effect of spreading the word about the negative impacts of prop q. I didn't know austintaxrateelection.com existed before the complaint, neither did many others. Lots of good info on it. Keep up the good work Love Austin Taxes PAC!
The city, especially, should be limiting tax and fee increases by looking at how much household incomes are rising in Austin, not just metro area. Inattention to that is what is contributing to people, especially families, leaving Austin and AISD losing students. Note that when…
As you hear @KirkPWatson (Watson Wire, August 8, 2025) bemoan —how Austin has become unaffordable, and —people (especially Black and Hispanic families) are moving out of Austin , —creating serious problems for AISD, and —he says property taxes are part of the problem (Redfin…
Woman who rides @CapMetroATX daily says that she feels UNSAFE, and UNHEARD. A homeless man sexually harassed her on one bus. On another bus, after a long day at work, a homeless woman had a violent tantrum, and grabbed Stephanie's BRAND NEW PHONE out of her hand and smashed it.
How was your Week Without Driving? Let’s listen to Stephanie tell her story to @PaigeForAustin & @CapMetroATX
Not all heroes wear capes. 🦸♂️ Shoutout to @natemcguire for exercising his #1A rights ! Vote No on Prop Q !! #txlege
(dark money enters the chat - not really that's sarcasm ethics commission) Hey @joecascinotx , it's me, a life long resident of Austin (UT grad), and also the creator of austintaxrateelection.com, and also the person you filed a "Ethics Commission" complaint against (lol).…
I’m a no on Prop. Q. I agree with some of the proposed spending, but we need to have a real budgeting process before asking citizens to spend more on taxes.
And the budget deficit these greedy amateurs face amounts to 1/2 of 1% of the total budget. But rather than deal with it (like we pay them to do) they decided to ask us to pay 20% more in taxes. Vote NO on Prop Q! Early voting starts Oct 20th
According to the Love Austin PAC website, 10 of 11 Austin City Council Members endorse Prop Q. They want you to pay more for the privilege of living in Austin. They cannot be bothered with the hard work of budgeting responsibly. They would rather you cut your own budget.
If you are curious why I believe the campaign behind Prop Q is misleading at best, read this piece.
We know the Travis County EMS Employees PAC has endorsed Prop Q, by nature of their pledged contributions. Austinites would like to know, does City Council hopeful @SelenaforAustin endorse Prop Q?
Austin Travis County EMS Employee PAC has pledged $25K in contributions to the Love Austin PAC. As a pledged contribution, it implies good-faith intent. We should expect to see this appear on the Schedule A in the next filing if the payment is fulfilled.
“If we don’t stabilize our budget, and we don’t get the ability to grow the budget along with the way the population is growing — when needs are growing — within about five years, we will be starting to manage decay.” @KirkPWatson Absolute BS. Look at spending vs population 👇
I was watching the Austin City Council Budget meeting today and thought - I want to see what's actually in the the thing. Here's what I found after analyzing the last 10 years of City of Austin budgets. Shocker, it's not great Austin’s budget grew from $3.5B in 2015 to $6.3B in…

Someone should get Franklin and Terry Black's on board. "'que, not Q" The ads write themselves.
Vote NO on prop Q. Tell your neighbors, family, friends, anyone you see at work, at the store, the gym, anywhere in Austin. This is a giant money grab from city council. A money grab to enrich themselves and their crony ngo buddies. Austin has plenty of money to run this city…
Prop Q is an issue that the Austin community at large is concerned about. I've heard of many businesses, community groups, and organizations that are openly against Prop Q. Let's create a list! Link any opposition announcements that have been published online by organizations 👇
Landlords and renters are adversely impacted by rising property taxes. Prop Q only makes life in Austin less affordable. It does nothing to reel in irresponsible city spending. Vote No on Prop Q to force the conversation about budget priorities. Make Austin rework the budget.
Sample of a hand full of rentals I still hold onto: Rent - $1,800 per month Property taxes - $1,000 per month After taxes, there is $800 left for mortgage, ins, maintenance. The tenant is struggling, I’m struggling and the government is somehow struggling with their $6.5B
Texas law exempts disclosure requirements for individual internet postings (like a personal website) x.com/HawkInATX/stat… if your total spend on the ad doesn't top $100 in a reporting period (Nate spent $12 and used AI). That's it. No excess spend, so no disclosure needed,…
