Michelle Quist: Republican women in Utah are starting to step up

There’s no question there’s a dearth of Republican women in elected office in Utah. We have no women in executive offices – governor, treasurer, attorney general, etc. – no women in the federal delegation and only a handful of state legislators.

Out of eight positions, Utah’s House majority leadership team has no women. The House minority (Democrat) leadership team includes three women out of four positions.

Utah’s Senate majority leadership team includes one woman out of seven positions – Sen. Ann Millner as assistant majority whip. The Senate minority leadership includes three out of four women.
