Vice Presidential Candidate Governor Mike Pence
Rallies for
Utah!
|
|
Thousands of people lined the streets of Salt Lake City
Wednesday afternoon hoping to get a glimpse of Vice Presidential Candidate,
Governor Mike Pence. Due to limited capacity inside the Infinity Event
Center, a second rally was held concurrently outside in support of the VP
candidate.
Attendees who were present for the rally inside were treated
to a great line-up of special guests including; Greg Hughes, Speaker of the
House who introduced Governor Pence, Don Peay, Trump For President & Utah
Chairman, and General Robert Oaks who addressed the crowd. Utah Republican Party
Chairman James Evans led the crowd in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Governor
Pence told the crowd that it's time for Republicans to come home. He expressed
to the Deseret News after the rally; "That is the message we're delivering all
over the country. Utah is in unique circumstances. Frankly, delivering that
message here with some of the added attention Utah is getting is probably
helping us get that message out across the country."
James Evans,
Chairman of the Utah Republican Party said Pence visited Utah "to close the
deal" for Trump. Utahns are pragmatic, and they understand a vote against Trump
is a vote for Hillary. I just don't think, at the end of the day, Utahns want
to deliver Utah to Hillary.
It was an exciting rally filled with
supporters from all over the state and beyond. People of all ages were there to
hear Vice Presidential Candidate Governor Pence speak. From Utah's youth to
our silver seniors, countless individuals from all walks of life came out in
droves to support Donald Trump for President. Thank you Governor Pence for
taking time out of your busy campaign schedule to make a stop in Utah! The Utah
Republican Party supports Donald J. Trump for President! If you would like a
yard sign, call or stop by the UTGOP HQ. Contact us at 801.533.9777. You can

Elected Official of the
Week!
|
|
|
Senator Orrin
Hatch
|
|
Now in his seventh term as Utah's senator, Orrin Hatch
is the most senior Republican in the Senate. Among his many initiatives are the
Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution, the Strengthening Our Commitment
to Legal Immigration and America’s Security Act, the Religious Freedom
Restoration Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Antiterrorism and
Effective Death Penalty Act, and the Utah School Trust Lands Exchange
Act.
Senator Hatch continues to lead in the fight to repeal
Obamacare. He is on the front lines of legislative battles to secure the
nation’s borders, stop the forced unionization of American workers, and to bring
fiscal restraint back to Washington by ending the reckless spending that
threatens to bankrupt the nation.
Senator Hatch is the Chairman of the Senate Committee on
Finance. He is also a member (and former Chairman) of the Judiciary Committee; a
member (and former Chairman) of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and
Pensions Committee; and a member of the Joint Committee on Taxation. He also has
the honor of serving on the Board of Directors for the Holocaust Memorial Museum
in Washington, D.C.
Orrin Grant Hatch was born on March 22, 1934, to
Jesse and Helen Hatch. He married Elaine Hansen of Newton, Utah in 1957. Orrin
and Elaine Hatch are the proud parents of six children, 23 grandchildren and 14
great-grandchildren.
