Rock was first elected as a TD in the 2016 general election, becoming Fine Gael's youngest TD. He was elected as a councillor on Dublin City Council in 2014. He previously worked in the US Senate for then-Senator Hillary Clinton. He also worked in Brussels as a speechwriter and press assistant.

I want to make sure we build atop our strong economy with a fairer society and I want to improve our infrastructure - getting the metro done and getting the shovels in the ground for the FingLUAS. I also want to focus on local health facilities.

Housing. I want to see the provision of more affordable rental property. I want to see it become easier to buy your first home. I want to see more ‘starter homes’ built.

I want to see a radical, implementable plan to immediately improve the public transport and the provision of affordable housing in Dublin ASAP. I believe the next government should immediately push forward funding dedicated to cycle tracks and establish and all-party housing commission in the first 100 days.
