Rick Cofer Files for Austin City Council


by: colin

Wed Dec 17, 2008 at 06:40 PM CST

BOR community member, Democratic activist, attorney, and all-around good guy Rick Cofer filed for a seat on the Austin City Council last Friday.

Many of you know Rick from his many community activities, public service, party activism and charity fundraising.

www.rickcofer.com

Rick serves as the vice chair for the City of Austin Solid Waste Advisory Commission, on the DNC, and on the organizing committee of the Austin MS Walk.

In short, Rick is running on what he calls the four E's:

(1) Ethics & Open Government
(2) Economy & Jobs
(3) Environment & Energy
(4) Equity & Social Justice

Great guy. Great platform. Great chance for young Democrats to get one of our own elected.

We hear a lot about developing a deep bench to give us options for higher office down the road.  This is where the rubber meets the road.

Full text of Rick's email after the jump.
