As Utah County Democrats we believe government should live within its means. We deplore the current ballooning federal deficit and the irresponsibility of those who have caused it through mismanagement and failed policies. We seek to elect federal representatives who will work to reduce our out-of-control federal debt.

At the state level, we support maintaining a healthy rainy day fund to prepare for emergencies. We also urge better governmental accounting procedures for estimating revenues and expenditures. We call for comprehensive tax reform and responsible tax policies.
