Turning our local police officers into immigration agents was a bad idea before and it’s an even worse one with the current administration. I’ll always fight to protect ALL Murray residents.

First results are in and it looks like I made it! Thank you to everyone who voted for me, donated to or volunteered on my campaign and to all of the candidates who cared enough about our community to throw their hat in the ring.
I have a lot of work to do before November and I hope you’ll join me!

It's official, I'm running for Murray City Council!
I've spent my career working to improve people's lives: providing government services, organizing communities, and building our infrastructure. Now with national politicians trying to divide us I am running to show that we're stronger together!

I’m here at the May Day rally in Salt Lake. 100’s of people showed up in the middle of a workday to show their support for our Unions. It was great to hear from speakers from Teamsters 222, Park City Professional Ski Patrol Union, CWA 7765, and many others.

During the chair debate last Thursday we were asked what level of commitment we would bring to this role. My answer was that being chair would be my full time job because our party deserves leadership that is fully committed to leading our party. #utpol

I had a wonderful time at the Davis County Democrats convention this morning! Congratulations to newly elected Chair Danielle Sikes and Vice Chair Garret Rushforth. As the 3rd largest county in our state, the impressive turnout and enthusiasm I saw today fills me with hope.

Another massive crowd out in Utah to protest for our rights. We will not stand by while the Trump administration shreds the constitution. We will not rest until our democracy is safe. Americans won’t stand for a King.

Over 10k of us showed up at the Utah State Capitol today to say "Hands Off". Hands off our democracy, our government, our social security, our neighbors, our rights. I've been attending protests for a long time and this was by far the biggest l've been a part of in Utah.
