Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner has released the first television ad of his 2019 mayoral campaign.

Entitled “Soul of a City,” the ad highlights how Mayor Turner worked to bring people together to overcome one of the biggest challenges the city of Houston has ever faced—Hurricane Harvey.

“This ad shows how Mayor Turner stepped up at a time of crisis and showed the world that Houstonians may be knocked down but not defeated,” said Campaign Manager Jake Burns. “As the Mayor says, when we work together and when we don’t allow our differences to separate us, we win.

“Mayor Turner will continue his positive campaign discussing his accomplishments of the past and solutions for the future.”

“Soul of a City” will air on both broadcast and cable beginning May 23.

Below is the script and a link to the ad.

In a moment of crisis,

You see the soul of a city.

You see the true soul of a man.

When times are tough, Houston pulls together.

When times are toughest, Sylvester Turner stands up for what matters most.

Making this city safer.

Making this city work in every neighborhood.

Making sure that we’re ready for whatever comes next.

Sylvester Turner

Tested in crisis. True to our values.
