Peter Crosby

  • Health care costs
    Every large-scale study points to single-payer healthcare, Crosby says, with private insurers allowed to keep existing but forced to actually compete instead of holding patients captive. 3
  • Cost of living & jobs
    Crosby pledges to end what he calls an illegal Trump tariff regime hurting local businesses and to ensure SNAP benefits keep reaching the 80,000+ Utah families who rely on them. 3
  • Immigration
    Crosby said any immigration enforcement resulting in American civilians' deaths is 'a broken immigration policy,' condemning warrant-less searches and detention of immigrants who committed no crimes. 4

About red flags

These are Voter Choice's editorial choices, not a finding about any person. We flag: stock trading while in office, absences, money's influence in politics, and reported misuse of power or public funds. State and local items may come from local news, which can lean partisan. Take with a grain of salt. The judgment is yours.

Based on current data. May change in a future update.
