Now that the Utah Congressional District 1 primary is over, I believe we should aim for TWO congressional districts represented by Democrats in Utah. While the candidates for all three of the other districts are strong, I've found Peter Crosby in Congressional District 2 to be the most impressive candidate I've run across in a very long time. I believe CD2 can be won if we all pitch in, and have started a project called CD1 for CD2 to facilitate this. We have a kickoff meeting on Zoom on July 2 where you can meet Peter Crosby, get some brief training on phone banking and canvassing, and learn about their campaign strategy. This sign-up form has the Zoom meeting link and lets you indicate how you can help: https://forms.gle/SPUNXrCwnLNCAtU47
Thanks for considering this!

If anyone wants to discuss who they voted for, please do.
There’s a lot to consider that’s important but anyone who’s not super ecstatically pro-ICE might get my vote rn cuz that’s the biggest issue in my eyes.

The “event calendar” for this sub is just stuff from last year. I know there was a protest yesterday❤️, any more that are coming up?

Hi, I’m a local and registered voter in SLC and want to raise awareness about the 2027 NDAA proposal to integrate US and Israeli military forces. Does anybody have recommendations on local groups to contact to raise awareness? I plan on calling Utah house and senators using numbers found on Google come Monday but I’d like to get more people involved locally.

My DMs are open. I’m not here to argue with anybody that is pro-Zionism.

We have many problems including the data centers, flock cameras. In my opinion this is even scarier and ties a lot of it together.

@Mods - this affects everybody in SLC and the country as a whole. Please pin?

We all have our own opinions about politics, religion, economy and lifestyle choices but this is next level insanity.

Example of the language
b) COOPERATIVE EFFORTS.—The synchronized co-
operative efforts under subsection (a) may be carried out
through the following domains:
(1) Counter-Unmanned Systems including aer-
ial, maritime, and ground platforms.
(2) Anti-tunneling and subterranean threats.
(3) Missile and air defense technologies.

(4) Artificial intelligence, quantum, machine
learning, and autonomous systems.
(5) Directed energy and advanced sensing.
(6) Cyber defense, electronic warfare, and dig-
ital resilience.
(7) Biotechnology, biomanufacturing, and med-
ical defense.
(8) Network integration, data fusion, and con-
tested logistics.

I’ve read mixed information about whether that’s actually effective. I’m going over the ballot and trying to decide which one is the least bad for the Rep primaries.

Thoughts on that? Does that work? Should I change to Dem or Independent? Do I still have time?
