Candidate for Colorado Springs City Council District 3. Organizer, dem socialist, and certified hater of developers owning our city government.https://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3lm3if3o7lc2zThis campaign didn't happen overnight; it came from years of dedicated people working hard and making personal sacrifices because they care about improving the lives of others. We were successful in being a serious contender as a grassroots effort because we had many amazing volunteers pitching in.05 Apr 2025 17:46 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3lm3if3o7lc2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3llraqvn4xc2uCity elections don’t automatically send updates when ballots are received and counted.

With a median age of 36, it’s time for Colorado Springs to have a City Council that represents young, working-class people.

Running a campaign is intense, but it’s been made so much easier being powered by amazing people (who know to fuel me with ice cream!)27 Mar 2025 02:16 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3llda6z42os27https://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3llcaeangjk2kI joined this sign on letter in solidarity with the residents of Mill Street, who are asking for a CBA with Norwood which intends to build a luxury hotel in the neighborhood. CBAs are valuable tools to protect communities from gentrification and displacement.26 Mar 2025 16:46 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3llcaeangjk2khttps://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3llaaxoenq22ySweeps don’t make us safer or fix the problem of homelessness, they move people around to disappear them. I’ll be showing up to support the unhoused in Colorado Springs - no matter the election results - and you should too! #housingfirst #coloradosprings #maryahlauerforpeoplepower25 Mar 2025 21:52 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3llaaxoenq22yhttps://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3ll2tzp4f6s26Supporting postal workers at the rally to save USPS! Labor unions get the goods, so join the fight to make Colorado Springs a strong union town.

Immigrants add so much value to our communities, despite facing xenophobic rhetoric and frequently the exploitation of their essential labor.21 Mar 2025 16:21 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3lkvmm5cf6c2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3lkqwoyiojk2yJazzed about my endorsement by @workingfamiliesco.bsky.social We need to elect people who care about progressive policies like affordable housing at all levels of government. #coloradospringsvotes19 Mar 2025 19:38 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3lkqwoyiojk2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3lkj4jbmrrs2nYou can mail your ballot or drop it off in a ballot box.

Teddy here knows how rough it can be sleeping outside for cats and humans alike, which is why we must adopt a housing first policy to deal with homelessness. Providing people with stable housing is more compassionate and cost effective. #housingfirst #coloradosprings16 Mar 2025 03:36 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3lkhpksnf6c2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/maryahfordistrict3.bsky.social/post/3lkh3riewus2fJoined CSEA in the St. Patrick’s Day parade as a supporter! Teachers in D11 deserve a contract and all public sector workers (like PPLWU) deserve collective bargaining rights. #unionstrong #coloradospringsvotes #stpatricksday15 Mar 2025 21:42 +0000at://did:plc:lxa4bapwp2hyi476nfopdnms/app.bsky.feed.post/3lkh3riewus2f
