Carl Ingwell for Congressional District 3

01/13/2018

Rep John Curtis is pushing HR 4532 as if it’s something that will benefit the tribes in San Juan County. This is not what the Hopi, Zuni, Dine, Ute Mountain Ute, and Ute tribes asked for, however. Rep Curtis is showing his hand early in his tenure as congressperson for Utah’s 3rd Congressional District: he does not listen to his Native American constituents, and instead falls in line with the neocolonialist rhetoric of the Republican Party.

For anyone wondering how last night's debate went, we won.
As an example of how we compare to the other campaigns, listen to the opening statements of Ben Frank and Dr. Kathie Allen compared with Carl. Mr. Frank said he "believe[s] the three most important words in the English language are campaign finance reform." Dr. Allen spoke about healthcare and called 'Trumpcare' "an abomination." We agree that healthcare and campaign finance are important issues, but they are not the only issues facing residents of CD3.
While the other candidates focused their remarks on single issues, Carl took a more holistic approach: "We have to work together to make sure...every Utahn can earn a living wage where they live, has affordable healthcare, and can enjoy Utah's remarkable public lands now and into the future. I will work tirelessly to make sure that happens." And Carl did more than just highlight important issues, he outlined his experience working with diverse groups from across the political spectrum to come to real solutions for issues facing Utahns.
Last night, Carl exhibited why he is the candidate who can in November. He knows the issues that families and individuals in CD3 face, and he will work tirelessly to arrive at equitable solutions that improve the quality of life for his constituents. He will do this because he has been doing this for the past 10 years. He has the track record and experience that Utah needs to bring real solutions and real change to CD3.
No other candidate is as prepared, or as qualified, as Carl to represent all of Utah's CD3. This is a winning campaign.

How does a Democrat win in Utah? In 2017, they harness a political realignment happening right now.
Look around at what's happening. The British General Election ended in Labour gains because millennials came out and voted. Bernie Sanders has changed our political landscape because millennials showed up. What else can we do when millennials get involved?
Back here in Utah, The Salt Lake Tribune has discovered Mormon millennials are split between Democrats and the GOP. 46% GOP, 41% Democratic. The Tribune also discovered Mormon millennials are more diverse and more balanced.
What this trend shows us is Utah, that unwaveringly staunch Republican fortress, is up for grabs in 2017. This campaign can win by reaching out to younger voters in 2017. Special elections and midterm elections always have lower voter turnout, but by energizing a younger demographic, Democrats can win in Utah’s CD3. We believe this campaign is best equipped to reach out to that demographic and make a meaningful connection with voters. What millennials want is one of their own in Congress, representing their voices. They don’t want the older generation giving them their diagnosis for the world’s ills, they want someone who looks like, thinks like, and votes like they do. Let’s give them that and put Carl on the ballot in November.

"There is no way people can be productive members of society and take care of their families if health care is a privilege and not a right."
Nevada state Assemblyman Michael Sprinkle has got it right. If you believe Utah's families deserve to be able to care for their families and live healthy lives donate to our campaign today https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/vote-carl. Changing healthcare from a privilege to a right is a fundamental part of what this campaign is about. We want to make Medicare for All something all Americans have access to. Help us make that a reality.
Our campaign supports enacting H.R. 676 because we believe this is the best way to provide quality healthcare to ALL Americans, not just the rich.
H.R. 676 was introduced in January by Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.), and has rapidly gained support from members across the country, adding 28 new co-sponsors in April alone. The bill would yield about $500 billion annually in administrative savings and provide immediate coverage to the 26 million Americans who are currently uninsured.
“Americans are fed up with an inhumane, profit-driven health system that leaves millions without care,” said Dr. Carol Paris, president of PNHP. “Quality health care is not a luxury, nor is it a commodity that can be bought and sold in a marketplace. It is a social good that can be best delivered through a single-payer national health program."

True universal coverage, on the cheap.

Meet Carl's mom. The photo on the left was taken when Carl was a baby at Bryce Canyon. The photo on the right was a recreation taken 30 years later.
Utah's public lands make this state one of the most incredible places to live on the planet. Everyone in this state has fond memories surrounding some part of Utah's vast outdoors. This campaign is working to make sure more pictures, like the one of Carl and his mom, get taken for generations to come. We want to protect these lands because we believe they belong to ALL Americans, not just wealthy business owners or those trying to make a few extra bucks. If treated right, our public lands can bring prosperity to our entire state!
