Mary Khalaf is a former Federal Officer, substitute teacher, wife, mom, business woman, cancer warrior & 2017 Americans for Prosperity's Activist of the Year.
Mary was a Democrat for most of her life but when she saw the Planned Parenthood Videos, which detailed shocking abuses in the abortion industry, Mary turned from the Democrat Party. Mary had been a patient of Planned Parenthood & almost had an abortion but was swayed by Pro-Life protesters arguments to seek an ultra-sound. Today Mary is the happy mother of a beautiful child who was almost lost to a system that supports abortion over mental health care & community support.
She is now a staunch Pro-Life Candidate who would advocate for creating a Culture of Life for women in crisis pregnancies. To creating a supportive atmosphere & where the message is, “All Life has Value”.
Alongside the idea that the community we build matters I would like to state my support for preservation of local Culture & Architecture as our region has an enriching community that the world could learn from. I would promote Cultural Activities that showcase the unique people that inhabit the Wasatch Front.
Our Communities are growing. Large parts of our communities will be turned from single family homes to larger apartments. My very home is slated to someday be removed to make way for luxury apartments. I’m concerned about Gentrification, where/how we build, how the landscape will be effected, preservation of natural resources, historic buildings & local Culture.
Utah is changing. People from all over the world are coming to Utah to build. We have a wonderful economy which was created by our Conservative Culture being at the Wheel of Authority. These changes are scary for some of the people who live here. They worry about Green Spaces on an encroaching population & quality of life. We need to build smart & keep in mind why people come to Utah. A healthy, green, walkable community lifestyle with a Cultural Enrichment that can rival any big city.
With Gentrification comes skyrocketing property values which is designed to afford selling our land out from under us for the wealthy. Where will those on a lower economic scale go to live? Higher property value & taxes adversely effects minorities which are a bedrock of the region around Ogden. Where will they go?
I’m aware also that the homeless are streaming into the car dealership areas of Ogden & causing damage. I would like to see our area work harder to help those in the homeless & prison community access to drug treatment &/or mental care. This segment of our population is as valuable as all others & when they suffer we all suffer. I support a pro-active approach to this problem.
I am firmly opposed to taxes so I propose cutting superfluous or extravagances in the Government to free up tax payer dollars to be used more wisely. Tax Payer intent is sacred & we should be proper stewards of their money.
In my approach to cutting taxes I am going to think outside the box & I’m Pro-Union as they’re presence is one way to alleviate inequality w/out raising taxes.
I also support creating an environment where our undocumented population can gain some form of documentation. We need to allow good standing & productive members of society some path of proper standing. I fully support the Federal Government & ICE. I would never cut off cooperation with Federal Authorities to achieve these goals as we cannot punish law abiding residents w/ sanctions from the Federal Government. I’ll work within the system to create a better system. We need a Wall but there is a door. I want to help good people have stability.
One reason we need a Wall is a large part of Islamic Terrorists apprehended in America come through our Southern Border. We cannot ignore this threat & I make no apologies for being tough on terror. I pledge to look out for you & to try to keep you safe.
I've worked in the Ogden area helping meet the needs of the community for over a decade. I believe that I can make principled & Constitutional decisions. I want to help preserve & amplify our beautiful American system which gives opportunity for all.
If you trust me enough to help you make the decisions that affect our community I promise to do all I can to see us grow in a way that benefits all.
The title of my blog reflects my desire to share what it is like to be a Muslim in America who's in politics. When I have worn niqab I have found it to be hard to convey friendly intent. It can be hard to push past preconceived ideas of what a Muslim is and how she feels. I hope to change that.
