Salt Lake City - Utah Democratic Party Coordinated Director Elliot Kauffman released the following statement today:

“Mike Kennedy wants the government to make medical decisions for Utah families. Mike Kennedy spent his career in the state legislature going after Utahns’ medical freedom while Utahns struggled with high housing costs, poor air quality, and underfunded public schools. Glenn Wright knows the truth: Republican politicians have no place in Utahns’ doctors offices and exam rooms. In his work as a Summit County Councilmember, Glenn Wright voted in favor of affordable housing. As a veteran, Glenn Wright has demonstrated his commitment to our country. Meanwhile, Mike Kennedy is only interested in taking power away from Utahns and giving it to himself.

Unlike Mike Kennedy, Glenn Wright has a commitment to freedom. Unlike Mike Kennedy, Glenn Wright is prioritizing common sense solutions on the issues that matter most to Utahns. Unlike Mike Kennedy, Glenn Wright wants to get things done, not waste Utahns’ time and tax dollars on pointless culture wars. Tonight’s debate showed that if you want to defend your personal freedom and have a government that will fix problems rather than create them, then Glenn Wright is your candidate.”
