At Latter-day Saints in Action we want to make sure that candidates get a chance to educate the public about who they are and what their stance is on issues that are important to their constituents. As such, I had the great privilege to interview and get to know a candidate running for a United State Senate seat here in Utah. Her name is Becky Edwards. She shared stories of how the Church has impacted her political life and helped her emphasize listening. She shared stories of successes and failures during her time in the Utah State House of Representatives, and even talked about how perceived failures can turn into successes when given enough time.

It is incredible to see how members of the Church are impacting so many areas of life.  During the interview, Becky said something that I think is indicative of her political philosophy, "I want the average Utahn to look at a piece of legislation and say, 'That actually connects with my life.  That makes a difference.'"
