THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND.
When Woody Guthrie wrote his folk hymn to America, he captured our nation at its best.
“This land is your land. This land is my land.” It’s a statement that’s open-handed. Generous. It acknowledges your stake in this land as an equal to mine. That’s how we build a government by the people, for the people. It involves looking out for each other. It involves creative compromise, collaboration, and contribution. Too often people view government as something that happens to them, rather than something great we’re doing together. As a result, politicians are perpetually promising to fight this person or that thing. There’s an entire industry built on making your fellow citizens out to be your enemies. Utahn’s, as I know them, are better than that. I’m asking to be your representative. I’m here to protect democracy and our collective ability to vote in this election and the next one and the next. Beyond that, I’m here to persuade, to work with others of good faith, and to build an efficient, effective government that works for all of us. I hope you’ll join me, donate if you can, and tell your friends.

Meet Corbin
I’m a 6th generation Utahn, with family roots going back to the first pioneer wagon train. Since that time, we’ve been blacksmiths and farmers, teachers and store-owners. Mostly, we’ve tried to be useful. And that’s what I try to do. I’m a husband to one and a father of two. I’ve got a BFA from BYU and an MFA from USC. I’ve worked in design, film, and trading. I’ve been a stay-at-home dad and I do most of the cooking and the dishes around our house. My wife is a science librarian and a teacher who keeps me informed and keeps me honest with myself. We work hard to put food on the table and to care for our kids. At the same time, neither of us have ever made much more than a middle-class living. I believe in a government by the people, for the people and I believe that, in order to have that, good and honest citizens have to find the desire to get up and get involved.
