How do you feel about clean air in the Salt Lake Valley?  Bingo!  It’s what we all want.  But in truth, it took too many years for Utah Republicans to actually begin to change policy and regulations to improve the valley air we all breathe.  

Rep. Becky Edwards began to sponsor legislation to improve our air quality in her first legislative year.  She was unsuccessful at first; then she began the important process of building coalitions. She helped form the Clean Air Caucus. Several years later her bills began to pass the Utah Legislature.  Utah can do more, but Becky was one of the first Republican legislators to recognize that our air quality should be a priority for every Utah elected official.

What Utah needs is a congressional representative who will recognize the problems, study possible solutions, and work with others to form partnerships that actually gets good bills passed. Becky Edwards is that person!

When she served for 10 years in the Utah House of Representatives, she had a solid history of being respected by all of her associates. Everyone wanted her as an ally on their important issues because they knew she was fair, ethical, and her sole goal was to serve her constituents to the best of her ability.

She will work tirelessly for all citizens in Utah Congressional District 2.  

Becky often campaigns with a traveling yellow couch, the actual couch where she has met with

countless constituents in her own home and potential constituents from throughout the state. It’s

symbolic of her concern for others and her recognition that she can learn by doing something important and unique – listen to others.

The other Republican candidates cannot match the credentials of Becky Edwards. Bruce Hough

is a proven fundraiser. Celeste Malloy is a proven researcher and consultant. Becky Edwards is a proven political leader with a sterling record of accomplishment.

If you’re a registered Republican in the south Davis area, your mail-in ballot will arrive this week

to elect the party candidate. This will be your chance to vote for one of the most capable public servants that I have ever met – Becky Edwards. 

I’m grateful that I had the privilege of working with her for a few years as a colleague in the Utah House of Representatives. To know her is to respect her.  Utah needs her in the U.S. House of Representatives.
