Reverend William A. “Bill” Lawson, founding pastor of Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church, has endorsed Laurie Robinson for Houston City Council At-Large Position 5. Lawson praised Robinson for her leadership, buisness credentials, and ability to respond to people of all backgrounds.
“I am endorsing Ms. Laurie Robinson as a candidate for Houston City Council At-Large Position Five. I view the governance of the City of Houston as a big business serving the needs of over 2 million people. Big business does not always serve the needs of people - Houston has to.
Ms. Robinson has a strong background in both business management and in responding to people of all backgrounds and all economic levels. She has worked in government, in finance, and in human services. At this time in Houston's economic climate, we need persons in City leadership who have strong business backgrounds, who are sensitive to the multiplicity of the sub-communities of our city, and who can work with other Council members and the Mayor in the necessary give and take of a Strong Mayor form of government. I believe Ms. Robinson has such credentials, and will make a good team member among the other members of the Council”. –
“Reverend Lawson is a honored leader, a man of faith, and is a driving force in bringing all of Houston together, and I am very honored to have his endorsement.” Robinson said. “We both believe that in this tough economic environment, leaders must be accountable and work together to make smart and actionable decision on the important issues that matter to Houstonians.”
Robinson states that issues such as economic development, fiscal responsibility in local government, and opportunties for small businesess to create additional jobs are critical to the City’s future and are important to fellow Houstonians. “I will work hard on these very important issues each day if elected to Houston City Council at Large Position 5.” Robinson said
