Looking forward to #AmFest2024. We get to celebrate and thank the folks @TPAction_ who helped mobilize hundreds of thousands of Americans and their votes! Our history is full of people who step up, and we saw it again this year! Count me in for all that comes next—won’t let up.

No, you missed the point! Your hatred and vitriol is disgusting. When you lose your humanity in order to make a statement you think is a politically clever, you embarrass all of us who are your constituents.
In case you missed the point or misconstrued it, the point is that there is more thought in a pile of rocks, tree stump, a bucket of water than the current GOP nominee for President. That is all.

This type of rhetoric makes clear that any degree of judicial impartiality is absent as is the decency that we should expect of any public servant. @SimGillDA is void of the judgment his office demands and Salt Lake County would be far better with his resignation.
What people already know. Truly, a dead body is more competent than Trump to be President. It would do exponentially less harm to our democratic republic & honor our ideals more.

I look forward to supporting @tylerbowyer and this resolution next week during the RNC summer meetings.
Happy to share the resolution “A Return to Excellence” — a resolution we have submitted for the upcoming RNC meeting to establish clearly the Republican Party’s commitment to single day, ID protected, paper ballots, geographically-defined precinct voting.

Hard to get to common ground when government is allowed to ignore you. Reform the Antiquities Act now! @POTUS we are not your subjects. Work with all of us, not against half of us.
This is what abuse of power looks like. https://t.co/dBwGwbGLzE

Opinion | Utah Sen. Mike Lee is right to support the PRESS Act. Well done @BasedMikeLee

“The PRESS Act is likely to again encounter some resistance. By nature of their position, elected officials are subject to criticism from the media, some of which they surely believe is unwarranted....

Spot on @tylerbowyer. Those with the wisdom of old age should show the humility of knowing when to pass the baton to the next generation! More mentorship, less paternalism. Let those who are still raising kids and likely to still be alive in 20-40 years take charge… Results!
We shouldn’t have representatives in our Republic who are too old to function. Retire. Spend time with your family. Move along.

🧵 1. This is Article I, Section 2 of the Utah Constitution. Do you read it to limit in any way the legislature’s power to modify or repeal a law previously enacted through a statewide ballot initiative? Should it matter whether the law deals with legislative redistricting?

Access to affordable medication is vital to our health care system. What are Romney and Lee doing to make this a reality?

My amendment to the RFMA—which would allow the bill to protect both religious freedom and same-sex marriage—should be adopted immediately. I urge my colleagues to oppose the RFMA unless or until that happens.

The Respect for Marriage Act has been making its way through the Senate and appears to be on its way to becoming law. But my Senate colleagues also need to protect religious liberty.

Really is amazing seeing all of the innovative ideas coming out of Utah. This group will create some amazing things in the years ahead. Having the right leadership in DC matters too! Especially those humble enough to listen and learn—great example.
