HOUSTON - State Representative Sylvester Turner on Friday confirmed his candidacy for Mayor of Houston.
He's headlining the campaign by proposing "a new Road to the Future initiative" to teach young Houstonians life skills.
"We all need smoother streets," said Turner. "But we also need to build better roads to the future for so many of our young people who are being left behind. I know we can do both."
Turner announced plans to formally kick off his campaign March 28 at Minute Maid Park in downtown.
Ben Hall and Chris Bell have also thrown their hats in the ring for the 2015 mayoral race as Annise Parker wraps up her final term in office. Like Turner, both Hall and Bell have previously run for the position.
