REP. ASHLEE MATTHEWS

STANDS FOR WORKING FAMILIES

It was time for a change

People often ask me why I decided to run for office.Β 

I ran because after 18 years it was time for a new, fresh set of eyes and ideas representing House District 37 and resolving issues of working class families.

I ran because working families deserve someone who understands their issues and will vote to support people, not partisanship.

I ran because we need more moms making decisions that impact our children.

I ran because my husband grew up in this house, and we are now raising our own family here. This is our community, and we want it to succeed and grow.

Running for office is not something that I ever imagined I would do, but we need change. I look forward to being that change for House District 37 and working class families across Utah.

As folks are getting off of work and headed to the polls, I'm reflecting on the opportunity I've had the last four years to represent and serve my community in the Legislature. Regardless of the outcome tonight, I consider this the second biggest honor of my lifetime, and am proud of the work that I've done and the commitments that I've been able to keep to my neighbors, friends, and community members of District 37. Representing working families of the West side and bringing blue collar voices to the table has truly been an experience that I'll never forget. Thank you for the opportunity. πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ ...

As Tuesday approaches I can assume that you, just like me, are getting bombarded with emails, texts, and mailers from all different directions trying to persuade you either in support or opposition to candidates and causes. I have treated this campaign the same way I approach my Legislative work; focused.I refuse to be distracted by negativity, mud slinging, or partisan politics. I remain focused in my dedication to my community and fulfilling the commitments I make to tackle the issues that you and I deal with everyday. The conversations that I've had with you over the summer at your doorsteps, community events, and through emails have me primarily focused this next session on:- Economic issues like the cost of housing, childcare, and groceries- Education issues like supporting our neighborhood schools, teachers, and students & resolving the bussing issue that some of our students were facing this year- Transportation issues like supporting walkable communities, increasing the frequency and reliability of public transportation, and repairing and improving our existing infrastructureBe sure to fill out your ballot all the way down! School board, State Senate, State House, and County Council races all impact your daily life and are usually won and lost by very small margins. Your vote could make all the difference in your representation. The closest ballot drop box is located at the Kearns Rec Center, or you can vote on Tuesday at the Kearns Library from 7 am to 8 pm. In gratitude and solidarity,-Ashlee ... See MoreSee Less
