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.

"Ashlee, what have you even done for the District since you've been elected?" is a question I'm happy to answer. In my day job I have performance evaluations regularly where my boss and I go over what I'm doing to make sure that what I'm doing is what they need me to do. I'm this job, YOU are my boss. I'd love to hear what I can do to better serve our District. HB181: Offender Employment AmendmentsThis bill created an online portal that connected individuals that are currently incarcerated and about to be released with jobs that they are eligible for, even with a criminal record. This portal is housed and maintained under the Department of Workforce Services. We know that stable employment is the first step to securing housing, paying back court fees, catching up on child support. We want to make sure that our neighbors starting over again have all the tools they need to continue their upwards trajectory. You can read the full bill here:share.google/1BB2UOcCqokgpK9zi ...

House District 37 is a proud working class community full of hard working folks who are more focused on their family's budget and how it will stretch to meet the rising costs of living, the morning commute, and whether or not the opportunities that built Utah will still be here for the next generation than on national political rhetoric.My lived experience as a working mom of three boys, a state employee, and a member of this community for the last 13 years has helped me stay focused on the issues that mean the most to us, and made me an effective advocate for Westside families - and I've got a track record of results to prove it.

Childcare is an issue that I've worked on every session since being elected, and I'm proud that I've been able to provide support for our kids, our parents, and providers with several pieces of legislation since then. I'm committed to continuing my work in this space to keep our kids in safe, healthy learning spaces and give parents a peace of mind and a little extra breathing room. ...
