Join in the political process
Dear Moms and all Utahns for Clean Air,
What’s more important than voting on November 4th? Attending your political party caucus or mass meeting on March 25th!
Party caucuses are not just for political junkies. In fact, that is where an ordinary person’s vote can make the most impact. By attending those important initial meetings, you can help ensure candidates representing you and your values make it on the ballot in November.
Join Utah Moms for Clean Air, Utahns for Public Schools, and several other Utah non-profits for a tutorial on getting involved in the Republican caucuses and Democratic mass meetings. Participating non-profits will also give briefings on key issues in the upcoming state elections—everything from air quality and the environment to education to healthcare.
There will be three informational sessions and trainings in Salt Lake County:
Thursday, March 6th, 6:30-8:00 pm
South Jordan Library, 10673 S Redwood Rd
Tuesday, March 11th, 6:30-8:00 pm*
West Valley Cultural Center, 1355 W 3100 S
*Spanish and English sessions available
Thursday, March 13th. 6:00-7:30 pm (space is limited)
Health & Wellness Building, Westminster College
1840 S 1300 E, Salt Lake City
As Governor Jon Huntsman said in his 2008 State of the State Address, “The power of our state comes from people who are concerned about their government. Government is a personal responsibility. You are the greatest safeguard against depersonalized government and the antidote to apathy.” At mass meetings, caucuses and party conventions, priorities are set and candidates are chosen. This is where we as a people determine the future direction of our communities.
These decisions should not be left to small minorities and factions within parties to decide. It should be a process engaged in by the public. With so many important issues at stake in this upcoming election, including moving our state towards cleaner air, we need candidates on the ballot who can lead us in the right direction. Please take this opportunity to get involved in the political process.

Thanks for working for clean air!
