As Utah County Democrats, we believe in wisely using the energy resources of our state while carefully preserving our environment. We call for improvements to mass transit. We support initiatives that advance the development of clean, renewable energy and that promise a cleaner, healthier environment; decreased dependence on foreign oil; and leadership in future markets.

We decry attempts to import radioactive waste from nuclear facilities outside of Utah for storage, particularly at sites within minutes of population centers.

We call for measures to ensure that our county and our state never become a dumping ground for nuclear waste.
