About


We are the Democrats of Iron County, Utah


What do we agree on?
It could be more than you think!

THE CONSTITUTION PROTECTS
EVERYONE WHO LIVES HERE

The Bill of Rights protects all people on American soil. It says “the people,” “persons,” and “no person shall.” Not “citizens.”
The 2nd Amendment says “well regulated.” That means responsible gun ownership, background checks, and rules that keep everyone safer, including gun owners.
Birthright citizenship is in the Constitution. It means what it says.


OUR ECONOMY NEEDS TO WORK
FOR EVERYONE

The tax code shouldn’t be rigged in favor of people who already have more than they’ll ever need.
Small businesses are the backbone of Iron County and need to be supported.
You shouldn’t have to choose between a good job and clean air and water.
If you work full-time, your paycheck should cover the bills. Period.


TRUTH AND EDUCATION MATTER

Every child deserves access to strong public schools, regardless of their zip code or family income.
News should be accurate, sourced, and accountable. Facts aren’t partisan.
Public policy should follow the evidence, not the loudest voice in the room.


EVERY PERSON DESERVES BASIC DIGNITY

Your medical decisions belong to you and your doctor, not the government.
Where you were born shouldn’t determine how you’re treated. That’s not a political opinion. That’s just valuing all human life.
Every worker deserves to be safe at work.


PROTECT UTAH’S LAND
FOR THE PEOPLE WHO CALL IT HOME

The people who live here deserve clean air, clean water, and open spaces to enjoy.
Utah’s natural beauty is special. It deserves to be protected, not paved over. Our public lands shouldn’t be sold off or repurposed for short-term gain.
Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

We meet every 3rd Saturday of the month
at the Library in the Park, Cedar City, Utah
