  • Ralph Becker Salt Lake City Mayor
  • I am proud to to endorse Joel Briscoe for House District 25. I have had the pleasure of working with Joel both at the City when Joel was the Chair of the East Central Community Council and at the Legislature where Joel is a tireless advocate for Utah’s children and teachers. From my 4 years as the Democratic leader in the House of Representatives, I know what it takes to be successful at the Utah Legislature and it is clear to me that Joel has those skills and will be a great representative for the citizens of Salt Lake City and all of District 25.

  • Dave Jones Former State Representative and Minority Leader
  • Hands down, Joel Briscoe is the most experienced community activist in the race for the District 25 nomination. He’s a former school board member, the current chair of his community council, and a leader in the fight to get power lines buried in our community. As a former State Representative, I know what it takes to serve effectively on Capitol Hill. Joel Briscoe has it in spades.

It is refreshing to see a candidate that is willing to challenge those around him and be a voice for an often voiceless community. I also appreciate the fact that you acknowledged that you are still learning and growing.
