Issue Position: Crime

Issue Position

The next Attorney General must continue to be very aggressive in protecting our children and families from sexual predators. It also must be a focus of the AG's office to fight against financial crime and those who abuse their positions of trust to commit fraud.

During my time as the Chief Deputy Attorney General, I have learned that effective law enforcement starts with local sheriffs. Right now, sheriffs are facing challenges from federal law enforcement officials who are stepping beyond their authority to enforce state laws. When they need backup to stand against federal overreach, they need to know that Utah's Attorney General will be there.
