The Log Cabin Republicans of Houston Endorses Steve Costello for Mayor
Houston, TX July 28th, 2015 – The Log Cabin Republicans of Houston endorses candidate Steve Costello for Houston City Mayor. Houston City Council Member Costello represents the values of fiscal responsibility, social inclusion, and sound qualifications that the Log Cabin Republicans seeks in a candidate. As the next Mayor of Houston Stephen Costello will work to solve the city’s looming financial crisis, rebuild our city’s infrastructure, and stand up for the rights of all Houstonians to be treated equally and fairly before the law. “After interviewing several candidates, Steve Costello offered the most fiscally sound policies to fix our roads and traffic, prioritize public safety, and protect taxpayer money,” said Houston Log Cabin Republican President Antoine Taylor. “In particular, his efforts to lower street and drainage debt by nearly $350 million over the last 4 years, combined with tripling the amount of annual funds dedicated to fixing our street and drainage problems made him the overwhelming choice of these Republicans.”
An engineer by education and trade, Steve was trained to look at problems and work to find a logical solution. His successful engineering firm, Costello, Inc. has not only helped grow hundreds of new jobs in and around Houston, it has also been named as one of the “best places to work” by the Houston Business Journal.
Steve continually works to serve his neighbors and his community. He has helped protect and expand our parks and public green space through public advocacy efforts, and has also worked to cut wasteful spending, develop solutions to our many infrastructure needs, and even fought to protect our most vulnerable against dangerous “pay-day” lending as a member of Houston City Council.
