| Collapse all
- Affordable, Accessible Healthcare
- Improved Air Quality
- Protect Education Funding
This is my life's passion. No one should be forced to choose between paying for medicine or for food, shelter and utilities. Especially during a pandemic.
Our neighbors approved Proposition 3, Medicaid expansion. The Legislature was wrong to go over our voices and alter the expansion.
Access to preventable healthcare will lower the cost of healthcare for all and save lives.
Air Quality
We all know that Utah winter "fog" is usually smog. Utah has some of the worst air quality days in the nation.
Poor air quality inversely impacts health, quality of life and economic growth during normal times - now, studies are showing poor air quality raises the likelihood of death by COVID-19.
I will work to make Utah a safer place to live, work and raise our families.
Education
Utah comes in deadlast year after year in per-pupil spending.
Good education results in a healthier population with reduced crime and higher standard of living.
