REP. ASHLEE MATTHEWS
STANDS FOR WORKING FAMILIES

I’M ASHLEE MATTHEWS, AND I’M PROUD TO REPRESENT
THE HARDWORKING FAMILIES OF HOUSE DISTRICT 37.

Every year, more Utahns tell me the same thing: they’ve lost trust in politicians.

Honestly, I understand why.

The good news is, I’m not a career politician. I’m a mom. I’m a wife. I’m a state employee. And I’m your neighbor.

I know what it’s like to balance work, family, and a budget that never seems to stretch quite far enough. I understand the challenges of raising children while helping care for aging parents. I know what it means to worry about rising costs, crowded roads, and whether the opportunities that built Utah will still be here for the next generation.

Representative government works best when the people making decisions understand the realities of everyday life—not because they’ve read about them, but because they’re living them.

We need representatives who know what it’s like to sit at the kitchen table and figure out how to pay the bills. Legislators who understand the transportation and infrastructure challenges facing the West Side. Policymakers who are committed to protecting both Utah jobs and Utah’s natural resources.

There’s an old saying: “If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu.”

That’s why I’ve worked hard to make sure the voices of District 37 are heard at the Capitol.

During my time in the Legislature, I’ve stayed focused on the issues that matter most to our families and our communities—and I’ve built a record of results to prove it.

This November, I’m asking for your support so I can continue fighting for the people I serve and continue being a voice – for US.

*Did you know that in 2018 a House Race was decided by just three votes?* 🗳️For the last six years it has been my honor to be our community's voice in the House of Representatives. During my service I've built a track record of advocating and building bridges in order to deliver results to our families, workers, and schools. I would be honored to earn your vote to continue this work at the Capitol. YOUR ballot could very well be the one to determine the outcome of this race and others.Mail in ballots are basically an open book test, so do your research, fill out your whole ballot - front and back - and drop it in the closest drop box by November 3rd. (**Bonus:** it will stop the mailers, calls, texts, and canvassers reminding you to turn it in)For information on judges check out the Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission: Judges.utah.govCheck out my track record and policy priorities at: aahleeforu#HD37o#electmoremomsc#ashleeforutahle#unityincommunityn#YourVoteYourVoiceeYourVoice ...

HB267: State Purchasing Director AmendmentsThis bill created a way for project managers of taxpayer funded projects to fill out an evaluation of a contractor after a project was completed. This feedback would help the state purchasing office to create a rating system for contractors that bid on state projects to help weed out the bad actors that consistently run over budget or over schedule, or those that create excessive change orders once a contract has been signed. By collecting this feedback and compiling the data in one centralized location it allows for more accountability for the contractors that undermine the competitive bidding process and allows the state purchasing office to award contracts for the best bids, not just the lowest. This bill created a formal process to be more responsible with tax payer dollars and passed through the entire Legislative process unanimously.
