Letter: Stewart should protect democracy from his own party
(Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) Incumbent Chris Stewart, Representative for Utah's 2nd Congressional District, won the nomination at the Utah Republican Nominating Convention Saturday, April 21, 2018 with 74% of the vote.
Rep. Chris Stewart creates the Anti-Socialism Caucus to help defeat socialism? If only he could see the fascist movement by his own party.
Rather than do his job, he has allowed the executive branch of our government to promote an authoritarian nationalistic policy.
It’s time to protect the democracy that Stewart claims to value, from his own party.
Mike Mitchell, Salt Lake City
