Constituent Reviews of Brandon Johnson
I think Brandon is doing an okay job so far. He seems to be trying to tackle some important issues like affordable housing which is a big deal for a lot of us. I’m still worried about how he’ll handle healthcare access and social security because that’s what really matters to me at this stage in life. Overall not bad but could definitely do more.
Brandon’s been alright but not amazing. I do like that he talks about equity and helping communities but it feels like he overpromises and underdelivers 🤷♀️. Climate stuff is super important to me and I haven’t really seen him push for anything bold there which is disappointing. He’s definitely better than some mayors we’ve had but idk I just expected more from him. At least he’s responsive when ppl call him out so that’s a plus. I’d say he’s trying but it’s kinda meh overall.
Brandon is not really delivering for me. His tax policies are killing small businesses in the area. I get that he wants to fund new programs but you can’t keep squeezing people like this. The economy here isn’t strong enough to handle that kind of pressure. I do think he’s trying to reach out to people more than others have and I’ll give him credit for being visible. But responsiveness doesn’t mean much if the policies are still bad for working folks. He’s gotta focus more on creating jobs inste
