Issues: Defense

We must protect those who protect us, and this is done by supporting veterans and securing Hill Air Force Base's future. Our veterans and active-duty military members need every ounce of support we can give them, and I'm proud to be a part of a growing trend of private sector and non-profit organizations finding unique ways to support our service members.

Regarding Hill Air Force Base, even from a young age when I would run out on our deck to watch the jets fly by, I knew the base was a point of pride for our community and vital to our economy. And from my foreign service in Washington, D.C. and abroad, I experienced first-hand the impact our armed services has on the security of our nation's citizens and interests abroad. The importance of Hill Air Force Base cannot be understated -- it makes our country safer, provides jobs to tens of thousands of Utahns, and needs someone with enough runway to commit to securing its future.
