[Thread] @GovHerbert and I are working hard to rebuild our economy. Our Utah Leads Together Plan, developed by some of Utah’s brightest, will help us emerge from this crisis sooner and stronger than other states. But the lives of unemployed Utahns continue to weigh on me.
Building on that plan, the Cox-Henderson team will partner with the private sector and legislature to pursue solutions that honor five governing principles for rebuilding Utah’s economy and securing a bright future for all Utahns.
Here is my 2020 vision for economic strength:
Here is my 2020 vision for economic strength:
1) Education First
2) Utah Solutions for Utah Priorities
3) State Government -- Work Better, Cost Less
4) Elevated Quality of Life with Balanced Growth
5) Rural Matters https://www.votecox.com/2020-vision/

1- Education First: Education is the cornerstone of both short-term economic recovery and long-term success. We must ensure all Utahns can thrive amid rapid change. Through targeted upskill and re-skill opportunities, Utah workers can be armed with a world-class education.
2- Utah Solutions for Utah Priorities: We must increase long-term resilience, reduce reliance on federal funds and nearsource critical supplies. We will prioritize in-state manufacturing, build supply chains and cultivate an economy founded on low taxes and fewer regulations.
3- State Government -- Work Better, Cost Less: Utahns deserve an efficient, transparent, and accountable government. We will continue to use the wisdom of all Utahns as we further streamline and modernize state government and continue to live within our means.
4- Elevated Quality of Life with Balanced Growth: Attracting the best jobs, investing in infrastructure that mitigates the undesirable effects of growth, and taking proactive steps to improve air quality will ensure that economic recovery will not compromise our quality of life.
5- Rural Matters: Rural is key to our recovery/prosperity. We will create diverse employment opportunities through rural business formation, enable telework and upskill rural workers. Our admin will prioritize agriculture and ranching to enhance Utah’s food self-sufficiency.
There is no more important priority than to rebuild our economy. Just as Herbert-Cox steered Utah out of the Great Recession to enviable economic strength, the Cox-Henderson administration will ensure we rise from this crisis as one Utah — resilient, prosperous, and strong.
TL/DR: We live in the best state in the nation, and it is only going to get better from here.
