FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Representative David E. Lifferth Announces Run for
Utah State Senate Seat in District 13

Utah County - October 12, 2015 - Representative David E. Lifferth today announced his candidacy for the Utah State Senate. Rep. Lifferth currently serves in the Utah House of Representatives representing District 2, which includes the fast growing communities of Saratoga Springs and Eagle Mountain.

Lifferth is running for the Utah State Senate to represent the 13th Senate District, which includes Lehi, parts of Bluffdale, Herriman, American Fork, Highland, as well as Saratoga Springs, Eagle Mountain, Cedar Fort and Fairfield.

"I am excited to represent the wonderful people in these cities of northern Utah County and Southwest Salt Lake County," said Lifferth. "I am idealistic and will continue my efforts to be open, transparent, and accountable to Senate District 13. There is a general sentiment nationwide that people are sick and tired of politics as usual. I share that disgust with the cozy financial relationship between self-serving politicians and special interest groups. I have and will continue to represent the voters and not special interest groups. I will continue to be a consistent, reliable, and predictable conservative. "

While most elected officials only communicate with voters when running for election, Lifferth's representation of the people in his district includes consistent communication with voters on a monthly, weekly, and even daily basis during the legislative session about the important state issues. These communication mediums include phone calls, text messages, email, social media, and surveys. Only after a district-wide conversation on these issues, Rep. Lifferth casts a vote in the state legislature. As a result of this extensive communication strategy, participants report that they know where Lifferth stands on these issues and the rationale behind his voting.

"Dave is one of the few representatives who always has his ear to the ground and actually listens to his constituents. Dave is always approachable and responsive to our needs as a city and the personal needs of residents within his district. I have confidence that he will continue to fight for the citizens." Rebecca Call, Saratoga Springs City Council

"I have found Dave Lifferth to be the most approachable representative I have ever encountered. If you can't reach him, you haven't tried. He goes out of his way to make sure he is accessible on a wide variety of platforms. He is truly the voice of people because he takes the time to listen to the people and values their opinions, as varied as they may be. Most other politicians I have met are intimidating, unapproachable, and have their own agenda." Matt Downing, former Utah County Delegate

"In my many decades of political involvement, I have never seen anyone represent me and the rest of the district better than Dave. He definitely has my vote for State Senate."
Ralph Rupp, Precinct Chair, Saratoga Springs

"I support David Lifferth in his run for State Senate," said John Emmett former Utah County Delegate. "He has actively engaged with our House district on key issues and I know I can always reach him to share my concerns and opinions and I know my voice is heard and communicated at the legislature. He is the model for any representative to make government work for the people. He has built such a strong relationship with his constituents, I can't imagine an outcome other than his election to the Utah State Senate. Frankly, I wish that he had run for the Senate sooner."

Rep. Mike McKell (R-Spanish Fork) said, "I have been very impressed with Rep. Lifferth in the State House of Representatives. He is different than other legislators. He stands out because of the way that he is involved with the people that he was elected to represent. When he speaks, he speaks for and about the people that he represents. I can tell that he is serving them rather than pursuing his own interests or a political career. I hope that the people in his district can see how well Rep. Lifferth has represented them in the state legislature."
