I am not running against Sandra, but for Utah, I would like to start the process of taking our state sovereignty back from the federal government.
  • We need to guard personal property rights.
  • We need to work with ore police to bring down the crime rate.
  • I am from Utah, born and raised here, and I believe in Utah values.
When I win my election for Utah House 21, I will be working hard to take our Utah real estate back from the federal government. I was shocked to learn how much of our state the feds actually own, that number is 66% which is the majority of Utah real estate is controlled by the federal government, and that essentially gives the control of the real estate in our state.

I will build alliances to get this problem rectified and to return Utah real estate to the state of Utah.

Utah should belong to our state and not the federal government, we need to make sure that we take care of this issue and never let it happen again by amending our state constitution.
