Let's get the elephant out of the room. I'm a conservative Democrat.
We need fresh, new leadership with bold ideas and a new approach to get more people back to work with quality jobs and restored dignity in the lives of our Utahns.

My experience is not creating debt but my experience is creating jobs.
