Putting Utah First

The Matheson family has called Utah home for six generations. Growing up in Utah, Jim learned from his parents to respect the values of hard work, service to the community, and the bond of a family. Today, Jim and his wife, Amy, a pediatrician, live in Salt Lake City with their two sons, William and Harris.

Jim has taken these core values to Congress and has been an effective and independent voice for Utahns – standing up against efforts to transport and dump nuclear waste in Utah, working for better schools and building a stronger economy. Jim Matheson is putting Utah first.

We Did It - Thanks to Your Support

11/7/2008

Thank you, Utah 2nd District voters. You have again given me the privilege of representing you in Congress.  I am proud and grateful.

Once again, we have the opportunity to take Utah's agenda and Utah's voice to Washington. These are challenging times for our economy and our security.  We have our work cut out for us. But we have already made a great deal of progress - I am optimistic about the future.
