Blog: Three Issues Important to Utah Families

Statement

Recently I was asked which three issues I believe are most pressing to Utah families. Here was my answer:

1) Quality Education. As a mother with three children enrolled in public schools, I believe that Utah--not the federal government--knows what is best for Utah's students. I trust Utah teachers and Utah parents over Washington bureaucrats, and I want to give our parents and teachers as much flexibility as possible when it comes to making education decisions for our children.

2) Improving the Economy. During my term as mayor of Saratoga Springs, I focused my time and energy on economic development. To promote job creation, I understand the importance of keeping taxes low and eliminating unnecessary red tape. I have support from Utah's business community, and in particular from small businesses, because of my strong record of economic development during my term as mayor of Saratoga Springs.

3) Repealing Obamacare. Like the vast majority of Utahns, I oppose Obamacare, but more importantly, I have a plan for what to replace it with. My health care plan calls for common sense solutions that empower patients and doctors, reduce costs, increase competition, and place more freedom and health care options back into the hands of Utahns.
