This is why you elect competent leaders like Nate, who know what they’re talking about and reach out to experts to learn more, and don’t elect people whose “expertise” is shitposting on X and thus focus on culture war issues
Utah’s dirty air isn’t an accident. Trump’s EPA stopped counting the health costs of pollution & politicians here are trying to shield fossil fuel companies from accountability.
Proud to stand with Brian Moench. We need a strong EPA, a protected federal workforce & clean air that puts people first.
