Jordan Teuscher is a representative elected in South Jordan and West Jordan. However, Jordan does nothing to represent South Jordan, and Jordan does nothing to represent West Jordan. 

What Jordan Teuscher does is promote himself, and a growing right-wing ideology.   

What has Jordan done?

  • He wants to suppress citizen initiatives.  He is the floor sponsor for SJR401 that will steal legislative rights away from hard working Utahns who draft, volunteer, collect signatures and vote on important citizen initiatives.
  • He doesn’t support working families. He legislated against public employees and teachers. 
  • He doesn’t like women. He voted against women’s access to private healthcare. 
  • He doesn’t like public schools.  He’s funneling money away from public schools through vouchers.  He’s attacking teachers and public school administrators. 
  • He doesn’t like LGBTQIA. Outside of our real priorities, he chose to legislate against 4 student athletes in Utah because they are trans
  • He doesn’t like renters and home buyers. He supported realtors and HOAs to keep costs of living high. He has reported more than $14,000 in campaign donations from realtor groups, property groups, insurance companies and financial institutions since 2022. 
  • He is rigging elections. He introduced a bill to knock out moderate candidates using the signature-gathering process (like Gov. Cox) who know the skewed Republican Primary is rigged against them. 
  • He voted for the proposal to RAISE the percent approval required for a citizens initiative to pass.
  • He is a copy/paste legislator introducing right-wing legislation from ALEC (https://www.commoncause.org/our-work/money-influence/alec/) that was also run in Texas and Florida. He’s doing the same thing working with the Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundation_for_Government_Accountability) whose focus is to push, repackage & franchise other people’s ideas to implement. He literally takes his cues from national right-wing think tanks rather than the people in his district.  
  • He is taking money from white nationalist groups. In 2022 he accepted money from the Young Americans for Liberty (https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/kyle-bristow), a group with clear ties to the white nationalist movement in the US.

What has Jordan NOT done? 

  • No bills sponsored for infrastructure
  • No bills sponsored for public transit
  • No bills sponsored for cost of living
  • He doesn’t talk to South Jordan or West Jordan constituents
  • He isn’t engaged with local City Councils
  • He isn’t engaged with public employees 

What has Jordan done for himself

  • He feigns outrage at the Utah Supreme Court decision to allow Better Boundaries proceed with their gerrymandering case against the Utah Legislature
  • He is “deeply appalled” at the Utah Supreme Court decision to allow the Planned Parenthood injunction to remain in place while a lower court hears the case
  • He legislated to loosen laws around campaign funds
  • He wants to move oversight of elections from the Lt Governor’s office
  • He sponsored bills to allow discrimination on the basis of “free exercise of religion”
  • He introduced more bills on crypto currency and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs)

Teuscher could more easily be summed up with a report card.  He received a 2024 overall score of “F” from Alliance for a Better Utah

  • “F” for good government
  • “F” for equal rights
  • “F” for sustainable futures
  • “F” for strong communities

Is this the person you want to represent you in 2025?  It’s time for a change.

    You should add that his day job is working for the LDS Church as legal counsel. I have called him out on that and potential conflict of interest. No worries. He sits on the House Rules and Ethics Committees. Good luck getting him to debate. I am a registered Republican for almost 40 years and I will be voting Green.

    It never went anywhere but Jordan sponsored HJR27 in 2023. Remember the two reps in TN that were expelled? Yes, Jordan wanted the same by coming up with a third way that could happed. I don’t believe the voters in district 44 pay attention to this miscreant. He needs to be exposed.
