Describing herself a fighter for all Salt Lake City residents, Jackie Biskupski launched her campaign Saturday for a second term as mayor and vowed to press for more affordable housing, expanded transit and improved air quality while also helping the homeless and the city’s small businesses.
In an event outside City Hall, Biskupski told cheering supporters said that since being elected to the city’s top office in 2015, she has “made change” and “created cultural shifts” across Utah’s capital city in pursuit of a progressive, people-oriented agenda and wants four more years to consolidate those gains.
“I love this city and I love my job,” she told the enthusiastic crowd of about 150 residents, elected officials and campaign workers.
