Utah’s new Third Congressional District is home to some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the country — from the red rock deserts of southern Utah and the canyons surrounding Glen Canyon to working farms, ranches and snowcapped mountain communities. As distinct and varied as the land itself are the rural Utahns who call it home. Rep. Celeste Maloy understands this and has championed innovative solutions in Congress that reflect the needs of Utah’s smallest communities.
During her time in Congress, and throughout her career for that matter, Rep. Celeste Maloy has shown time and again that she knows both the land and the people she represents. She takes the time to listen to the needs of our communities, finding solutions that respect our history, culture, and unique needs. She rejects the one-size-fits-all solutions crafted in Washington, D.C., that rarely work for rural Utah and instead has delivered practical solutions to address abandoned mines, expand public land access and secure critical investments for Utah’s agricultural community.
In politics — especially during campaign season — talk is cheap. Through hard work, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of Western land and water issues, she has established herself as a respected leader in the natural resources and agriculture space in Washington. Whether advocating for responsible public land management, supporting rural economies, or protecting the future of Utah agriculture, Rep. Maloy has earned the trust of local leaders and communities across Utah because she consistently backs up her words with action. We are proud to endorse her and urge those we represent to support a proven champion of rural Utah.
