2024 UT Senate race: on Principles & Values


Brad Wilson: Need to restore the values that have made our country great

Our nation is at a crossroads. Our freedoms are under attack and we need a conservative fighter with the guts to shatter the status quo and restore the values that have made our country great. Let's take our country back, together.

Trent Staggs: Jesus Christ at the center of their family of two children

Trent and his wife, Alisha, have been married since 2007. Guiding their successful marriage has been a shared faith in God, with Jesus Christ at the center of their family of two children. Trent knows that the family is the bedrock institution of all human society. Families must be safe and strong if a country wants to be.

Trent Staggs: Wokeness is a false religion with no business in government

Wokeness has infiltrated almost every aspect of our daily life, fomenting hostility and anger under the false flag of "tolerance." While many companies who subscribe to ESG guidelines "get woke and go broke," wokeness now has the force of law under the corrupt Biden Administration.

Wokeness is a false religion with no business in our government. It must be ripped out wherever it shows its ugly head. As Senator, I will be woke's worst enemy.

Mitt Romney: Time for new generation of leaders excluding Biden AND Trump

Mitt Romney announced that he would not seek re-election in 2024, saying he wanted to make way for a "new generation of leaders." He strongly suggested that Mr. Trump, 77, and President Biden, 80, should follow his lead and bow out to pave the way for younger candidates, arguing that neither was effectively leading his party to confront the "critical challenges" the nation faces.

"At the end of another term, I'd be in my mid-80s. Frankly, it's time for a new generation of leaders," Mr. Romney, 76, said in a video statement. "They're the ones that need to make the decisions that will shape the world they will be living in."

"It would be a great thing if both President Biden and former President Trump would stand aside," Mr. Romney told reporters later on Capitol Hill.

Caroline Gleich: Family loss led to becoming a professional ski mountaineer

My half-brother Martin played a pivotal role, introducing me to climbing and creating some of my happiest childhood memories. My life changed tragically at 15 years old when Martin was buried by an avalanche at the age of 37. Losing him changed me profoundly, igniting a commitment to honor his memory by embracing the challenges of the big mountains. Ski mountaineering became my passion, and I worked my way up to realizing my dream of becoming a professional ski mountaineer.
