The Great Salt Lake is facing severe shrinkage driven by overuse of upstream water, drought, and rising evaporation rates—creating exposed lakebed that threatens air quality, ecosystems, and Utah’s long‑term water security. I support bills that will further protect the lake and provide for a sustainable future
Water conservation: Utah faces widespread water‑supply challenges, leading to additional proposals such as leak‑tracking requirements for utilities, new water‑rights rules for areas in the Lower Basin, and exemptions for certain municipal water suppliers
Wildlife and green space are important to every community and a balance must be found between environmental protections and allowing continued growth
Redistricting is a big issue in Utah. I believe that voters should choose their representatives. We need to protect the Independent Redistricting Commission (IRC).
Judicial Independence is a key component of any democracy. I oppose supreme court expansion from 5 to 7 justices and believe that vetting standards should remain non-partisan.
Voting access and election integrity: the existing universal vote-by-mail system works in Utah! It seems fundamentally wrong to make it harder to vote.
Equality: I believe we need to uphold protections for all members of our society. In Utah, we have a rich culture that includes many from different backgrounds, beliefs, and orientation. This is what makes Utah great! We should make all individuals feel welcome rather than seeking ways to marginalize their views and backgrounds.
