“Utahns would be willing to pay a per gallon carbon tax of $0.26, $0.16 and $0.08 more than the status quo if revenues are used to eliminate sales tax on grocery store food, clean local air pollution, and fund clean energy development, respectively.” utahbusiness.com/is-a-utah-carb…

I am opposed to the proposed Parley’s Canyon mine. Glad to see this @Deseret Editorial in opposition. Clean air matters for our health, quality of life, & economy. Creating new mines in sensitive & densely populated areas makes no sense. 1/ deseret.com/opinion/2023/6…

Each of these dust storms is a reminder of how important it is to get water back in Great Salt Lake and restore the climate. Let's grow the flow.

Salt Lake County Police and Firefighters have endorsed me for County Council because they know that unlike my opponent — who cut funding for the public safety bureau and prosecutors — I will always put public safety over politics. #votesuz #publicsafety

Accumulating material goods is not enough to live well, for Jesus says that life does not consist in what one possesses (Lk 12:15). It depends, instead, on good relationships – with God, with others, and even with those who have less. #GospelOfTheDay

Because it’s important to say out loud… I’m a Republican who does not believe the 2020 election was stolen. Can we improve our election processes? Of course! But Biden won. To Republican friends who think otherwise, this might be a good read. #utpol deseret.com/2022/7/14/2321…

Numbers like these are disappointing. We need policy makers that address these issues of equal pay and equal work. Everyone deserves to have an equal opportunity to support their families and build a better future for the next generation. #equalpay Courtesy of Axios SLC

One lesson from the Catholic Media Conference: People of all ages are letting social media algorithms choose the news they receive. We are dangerously lacking in media literacy as a nation.
