Our public lands are a national treasure that need to be protected for future generations. It is also true that tourism is by far the largest sector or our economy. However, our public lands have been under attack for years. The oil and gas industry has lobbied hard for the right to exploit anywhere they'd like. As your representative, I will work for you and not for any lobby group. Learn more
All Utahns have a right to breathe clean air, and our policy makers have a moral obligation to protect the health of our families. We've seen numerous studies that show the dramatic health effects of breathing polluted air. This is no less than a public health emergency. Anthony will bring pragmatic and bold solutions to the table. Such as converting coal fired power plants to natural gas, updating our aging air quality monitoring systems, investing in smarter transit infrastructures, and creating incentives for electric cars and solar electricity.

Creating affordable healthcare isn't just the morally correct decision, it's fiscally responsible. Here are Anthony's priorities on healthcare: -Accept nearly $900,000 in federal funding to expand Medicaid for 100,000 low-income workers. This is tax money that we've already paid for! -Take action to control our skyrocketing costs. We've all seen hospital bills that charge $26 for a tablet of Aspirin. Enough is enough. -Create a public health insurance option that would provide families with the freedom of purchasing healthcare plans through our state's Medicaid program. Learn more
