Doug Greco argues that the Austin City Charter's limit on campaign contributions from nonresidents is unconstitutional, claiming it hinders grassroots fundraising for his campaign.
Attorney Holt Lackey stated, "The rule is unconstitutional under numerous precedents and we are confident that the court will strike it down," highlighting a broader trend of similar laws being overturned.
With the upcoming election on Nov. 5, time is crucial; Lackey expressed hope for a swift agreement to address the timing of the court hearing.
A spokesperson for the City of Austin confirmed awareness of the lawsuit and stated the city would respond through the proper legal channels.
