YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS. IT IS SO SIMPLE AND BASIC. IN A NUTSHELL, BOYS ARE BOYS AND GIRLS ARE GIRLS. MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN. FAMILIES MATTER, A LOT, AND IDEALLY HAVE A MOM AND A DAD, MARRIED, TRUE, AND TRYING. DON'T LIE, DON'T CHEAT, DON'T STEAL, AND DON'T KILL. INTEGRITY AND HONESTY STILL MATTER
Carlton is the only true conservative on the ballot.
He is running against John Curtis, the Republican, and the Democrat Caroline Gleich . Carlton E. Bowen is on the Independent American ticket for the US Senate seat from Utah. AND HE IS THE BEST OF THE THREE CHOICES for this race.
Curtis has been in the House, runs an Environmental Caucus and has accrued a huge stock portfolio only slightly smaller than Nancy Pelosi's ... Curtis has voted to take thousands of acres of Utah land and put it into new monuments, taking the land out of Utah's control ... Curtis has voted for uncontrolled Biden spending which has increased inflation on ALL of US ... HENCE: Curtis is NOT the Best choice on this Nov.'s ballot !! Vote Carlton !
Carlton IS the BEST CHOICE and the ONLY one with true conservative 'Traditional Values'
HE will represent Utah well and better than any other candidate. He is capable and willing to work with Mike Lee to help make Utah and America better, solve some of the ills and keep us all moving forward,
Traditional money means more than using the Gold and Silver coin the U.S. Constitution envisioned and reuires. It also means Free Market economics, not corporate welfare, not socialism, not communism.
Father a Free Market where consumers, not government, choose the winners and losers.
It also means the opportunity for all to prosper.
It also means fiscal responsibility by our federal government, with balanced budgets and reducing the national debt.
America was founded by people seeking religious and economic freedom. The Pilgrims arrived in Plymouth, Mass. on the ship Mayflower in 1620, fleeing religious persecution in Europe. Jamestown Virginia settlers arrived in 1607, seeking better economic opportunity.
We declared independence on July 4, 1776, but we didn't win it until five years later in 1781, when the British surrendered at Yorktown, Virginia.
In all of these events God was the author of our liberty. And we must continue to remember Him if we are to remain a free nation today. Indeed, our national motto is "In God we Trust." May it ever be so.
Carlton has been civically involved his entire adult life, first running for electd office at the age of 26. He was the first to declare his candidacy, then as a Republican, for what later became the open seat for Utah's 2nd Congressional District. He finished fourth of six candidates in the GOP State Convention.
He ran for the U.S. Senate as an Independent American in 2000. He ran because incumbent Senator Orrin Hatch who had been chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, was putting forth Supreme Court nominees who weren't Pro Life. Carlton finished third on the general ballot, beating the Libertarian candidate.
Carlton ran for and was elected to the American Fork City Council in 2015. He ran because the American fork Police Chief had written a letter opposing Constitutional Carry legislation. The legislation had passed both chambers of the Utah State Legislature but then Gov. Herbert vetoed the bill, citing in part opposition from some city's chief of police. Thankfully, Constitutional Carry legislatioon was later passed and signed into law.
Carlton served on the city council from January 2014 to January 2016, voting against unconstitutional spending. He sponsored and passed a resolution recognizing Constitution Day in American Fork City.

(June 25, 2024, POLITICO said of Curtis:)
"Mitt Romney will be replaced by a guy who sure sounds a lot like Mitt Romney.
"Republican Rep. John Curtis, who has occasionally bucked former President Donald Trump, won a crowded GOP primary for Romney’s Utah Senate seat. He beat Trent Staggs, a MAGA candidate with Trump’s blessing, to secure a win for the mainstream GOP in a devout Mormon state that has long proved skeptical of Trumpian politics."
[ We didn't say it ... they DID !! "Out of the mouths of two or more witnesses shall every word be established" - according to the Good Book ]

(Curtis Press Release, Jan 12, 2021)
Curtis, colleagues introduce concurrent resolution to condemn and censure Pres. Trump
Rep. John Curtis (R-UT) and Republican colleagues introduced a concurrent resolution to censure the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. for attempting to unlawfully overturn the 2020 Presidential election and for violating his oath of office on January 6th, 2021.
In the aftermath of the riot at the Capitol last week, lawmakers have the solemn duty to accomplish two missions: hold the President fully and unequivocally accountable for his actions, and simultaneously calm and heal the fever-pitch tensions in our country.
Congressman Curtis released the following statement:
"The events at the Capitol were abhorrent, all those involved must be held accountable, including Pres. Trump. Censuring the President and making it clear that Congress does not support any level of his involvement in the riots nor any attempt to undermine an election is a critical step in holding him accountable as more facts continue to unfold," aid Curtis. "I urge the Speaker and Democratic leadership to allow time for a full impeachment inquiry so we can properly bring these facts to light and hold those responsible accountable."
[Thomas Jefferson once said: "I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery" -- (letter from Jefferson to Madison, January 30, 1787) Jan 6th was just one of those 'dangerous' days !! It was NOT an insurrection! The violence was caused by the outside agitators, not the MAGA crew!!]
--------------------------------------------------
Curtis spoke at the Sutherland Institute's annual series of discussions with Utah's federal delegation Thursday (Sept. 5, 2024). He picked the title "Reinventing the wheel — but this time, let's try a square"
Curtis believes that reticence to look for unconventional solutions comes from a culture that doesn't forgive mistakes in the political realm and rewards those who stay in their comfort zones.
"How many of you think government is broken?" Curtis asked, in response to a question about why he chose that particular title. Several hands went up. "Too often, we want to fix things thinking the wheel is round, and we're not willing to try a square wheel because everybody knows a square wheel is bad, right? And yet we keep coming up with the same solutions, and they're not working."
[We agree, Gov. is broken!! and Carlton's form of 'Independent Governance' is the real wheel we need!!]
------------------------------------------------------
Curtis claims: " John has transferred more federal land to Utah than anyone else in state history." ... Yet, in 2019 Curtis helped sponsor an 850 acre, Jurassic National Monument as the smallest component of the Emery County Public Land Management Act, championed by Rep. John Curtis, R-Utah, and passed by Congress last month as part of a much larger omnibus 1 million acre lands bill. AND expanded Goblin Valley State Park (by 6261 acres) tripling its size by adding heavily used public lands nearby to the park.
Among its key provisions the bill:
• Establishes 660,000 acres of wilderness in unroaded scenic places such as Big Wild Horse Canyon, Muddy Creek, Nelson Mountain, Rhino Head, Turtle Canyon, Eagle Canyon Horse Valley and Sids Mountain, more than tripling the amount of BLM holdings designated as wilderness in Utah.
• Designates the 217,000-acre San Rafael Swell Western Heritage and Historic Mining Recreation Area.
• Protects 63 miles of the Green River under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. Specifically it designates as “scenic” the 49-mile stretch downstream from Bull Bottom through Labyrinth Canyon to the Wayne County line.
• Authorizes the exchange of around 100,000 acres of state trust lands inside the newly designated wilderness and recreation areas for BLM land elsewhere in the state.
• Directs Interior to convey 640 acres to the city of Emery for public recreation, 320 acres to the county to expand the Huntington Airport, five acres to the sheriff’s office for a substation, and five acres to the county for an information center at Buckhorn Wash.
[Sorry, it doesn't add up!! 924,111-thousand acres given to Feds sounds more like "John has transferred more Utah land to the Feds than anyone ..." Then his website continues to say:
"In the Senate, John will continue to protect Utah land from outside intrusion and federal overreach" ... with his form of 'protection' UTAH CANNOT AFFORD CURTIS!! ]
Curtis believes "digital assets and crypto currency" both play an important role.in our future. Such as CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) and crypto 'scams'? CBDC is a way for banks and government to surveil how and what we spend our money on, a method of controlling what we spend our money on and for, and for government control of our financial assets. Utah's legislature has already said CBDC cannot be used within the state of Utah!! It is illegal here!! So Curtis wants it??
His website goes on to say: "John has been proud to support these industries in Congress, and will continue to work hard to make sure those in Silicon Slopes and throughout Utah have the certainty from the government they need. He will continue this critical work in the Senate." Can we AFFORD his "work" and support of these "industries"?

Even the logo on his signs looks like a hammer floating over the mountains ready to CRUSH THEM ...... an ominous foreboding?
