You're the one who needs to apologize Mr. Chaffetz


At today's Sutherland Institute debate between Utah's 3rd congressional candidates, Bennion Spencer (D) and Jason Chaffetz (R) , Mr. Chaffetz demanded an apology from Mr. Spencer for supposedly misrepresenting Mr. Chaffetz's heartless immigration policy.

Mr. Chaffetz also stated that he was a Democrat until he learned to read.

I guess Mr. Chaffetz is suggesting that the late LDS leader, President James E. Faust, along with other past and present Utah Democrats never learned to read.

Mr. Chaffetz claimed he would work with all members of congress who have a "good idea", but his above statement is just another example of his arrogance. He has misrepresented the Western Governors Association on their immigration policy (More on that today from Bennion Spencer). He has demeaned all Utah Democrats, and he is showing his true nature and inability to look at immigration issues with a humane heart.

More on the debate later today.

Skip the Extra Value Meal


Every day most of us hit the drive-thru at lunch time for our favorite combo meal with burger, fries, and a Coke.

What if, instead, we skipped the Big Mac or Whopper once a week, and used our debit card for something much better for our health: Getting Utah Democrats elected!

Morgan Bowen and Bennion Spencer are looking to hit 1,000 ActBlue donors by the end of August. It's a very reasonable number to achieve, if we all pitch in.

Be it $5, $10, $15, or $50, a weekly contribution from Amicus readers alone would get it done.

Besides, have you seen the calorie count on a Whopper?

Amicus Candidate Spotlight


Bennion Spencer
Americans deserve the opportunity to realize their dreams by working hard and building a better life for their families. In America today we face unprecedented economic challenges. Middle class families are working harder than ever and receiving less. Foreclosures and fuel prices are skyrocketing. A strong middle class is more essential than ever before to America's prosperity. I am running for Congress because restoring fiscal responsibility in Washington and rewarding America's workers requires experience and strong leadership.
