Hello – 

I’m writing to you because you are an important member of the Republican Party in Utah House District 44.  I know that you are a committed member of your party, but I’m asking you to consider voting for me – a Democrat – in this election.  There is good reason.  

For the past two elections, the incumbent Jordan Teuscher has represented South Jordan and West Jordan communities in House District 44, but he’s failing to serve constituents here. He doesn’t represent our values, he doesn’t serve our community, or the interests of Utah voters. I’m asking you to vote for what’s best for you, what’s best for our district, and what’s best for Utah by helping me unseat Jordan Teuscher this election.  I’m reaching out because I want to drop the rhetoric and focus on what’s best for Utahns.  

Teuscher leads, and actively works against Utah voters better interests, including yours: 

  • Teuscher was the House floor sponsor of SJR401, which became Amendment D to strip Utah voters of legislative rights (This was blocked by Utah Courts on Sep 12, 2024 for deceptive language, and for not following due process) – he now says that he will run it again
  • Teuscher was also the House floor sponsor of SB4002 House Sponsor of Ballot Proposition Amendments to jam through Amendment D, and Amendment A in 2024, which are both voided on our ballots. 
  • Teuscher voted for HJR14 to make it more difficult for Citizen Initiatives to pass (Failed/Not Passed)
  • Teuscher sponsored HB185 Primary Ballot Requirements to remove candidates who qualify through signature gathering process (Failed/Not Passed). This affects the Republican party, and as much as you may be vested in your closed primary, he’s attempting to change the rules to make it more difficult for Republican candidates to participate in Utah’s election process. 

Teuscher is writing bills poorly that are caught up in expensive legal battles that Utah eventually loses:

  • Teuscher sponsored the Minor Protection in Social Media Act (Blocked by Utah Courts for violating 1st amendment rights) – this was a good idea but executed poorly because it ignored first amendment rights in the bill language.
  • Teuscher defends Amendment D (which I tear apart here) with misinformation and lies. The cost for taxpayers to write the bill, publish on ballots, defend lawsuits and ultimately lose BADLY is not just embarrassing, it’s expensive. 
  • Teuscher also decries the Utah Supreme Court decisions to allow the Gerrymandering case to proceed in the lower court, as well as the injunction upheld by the Utah Supreme court on Utah’s trigger law.  Checks and balances are expensive when Jordan is involved. 

Teuscher actively works against the better interest of our public (state, county, municipal, school and first response) employees 

  • Teuscher was the sponsor of HB285 Labor Union Amendments to weaken public employee rights (Failed/Not Passed).  
  • He repeatedly submits bills that dismantle worker rights, and he consistently targets our public employees every time. 

Teuscher doesn’t care about religious freedoms

  • Teuscher was the House floor sponsor for SB150 Exercise of Religion Amendments to protect discriminatory acts based on religious belief (Passed)
  • Teuscher voted for HB269 to add Ten Commandments to public school curricula (Passed, expect civil liberties groups to file suit)

Teuscher doesn’t support our Public Schools

At the very minimum, find out what I want to do as your state representative, if I’m elected. https://green4utah.vote/proposed-2025-legislation/

If you made it this far, thank you.  We need a better voice in the Utah legislature. I’m asking you to consider making a vote for me based on your conscience and for better engagement. 

Be Well, 

Greg Green
Candidate, Utah House District 44 running against Jordan Teuscher
