“I am incredibly passionate about funding public education and keeping public dollars in public services. More information on my policy positions can be found at StephenForSLC.com/platform”
(Ballotpedia) “I would like Salt Lake to be a city with opportunities for all. Specifically, I want every resident to have the ability to own the place where they live. I want the city to be welcoming to visitors, and for residents, I want it to be a place where they feel a true sense of belonging - in a place that belongs to them. I envision cooperative housing replacing the rental model so that housing stability and the communities it fosters become the rule rather than the exception.”
(Ballotpedia) “While anger drove me toward politics, hope is what has kept me here. Through conversations with my neighbors, I see the people of the Westside fighting to fund education, address the housing crisis, restore the Great Salt Lake, and stand up for the most vulnerable gives me hope that a better Utah is possible. Our community motivates me to fight for a Utah that works for the people, not just those on Capitol Hill”
