- Ethics. He told me of his desire to see some real ethics reform in the legislature. Also his concern for big corporations and banks and how they influence legislation. It bothers him the way credit unions have been attacked by the banks and thinks ethics reform can help correct that.
- Education. (He is a former educator/principal from Uintah) You can tell he has a real passion for education and desires to find ways to bring more money into schools and to find ways to adjust the budget. He is tired of Utah being last in education spending per child.
Randy was great to talk with and he hit on a number of issues dear to my heart, especially his strong support for Credit Unions. He is currently on the board of Weber Credit Union and is a former principal from Uintah Elementary. He is also a lifetime resident of South Ogden. I was really impressed with our visit and look forward to more. However I must disclose he did grow up in my neighborhood and his mother attends the same church as me.
He has a simple website that is laid out in blog format. It hasn't been updated in a while but has all the info it needs at this time. You can get the basics about him, his issues and also his background through the site. The website is in a similar format as the Weber County Democrats website, so it appears they have really jumped in and are helping him. Check it out here: http://randyrounds.weberdemocrats.org/
Once again, great visit and a great man. Look for my Dixon Pitcher profile soon.
