- Money allocated for education must be spent in the classroom on students for individualized education.
- In order to make Utah an attractive place for veterans and seniors, we need to adjust taxation on retirement pay. In the last 23 years inflation has eaten away at retirement credit.
- Tax policy reforms are necessary but should be addressed individually. Tax policy should not protect corporate profits at the expense of Utah families, education, and small business.
