As Utah County Democrats we believe that government is the way we organize our community to do what we cannot do individually. As such it should be held to the same standards we expect of individuals: honesty, fairness, and respect for the rights of others. We call for open and limited government that serves all the people. We oppose decisions about our future being made behind closed doors. We call for checks and balances, professional ethics, and the protection of our rights by those we elect to represent us.

We stand for the common good and reject the promotion of personal agendas at the expense of the rest of us by those who would manipulate laws or regulations for their own profit. We call for vigilance on the part of our elected and appointed officials to eliminate corruption in our government wherever, whenever and by whomever it occurs.
