If I had a nickel for every Utah Republican legislator who had been in one of my friends dms bashing gay people I’d have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird right?

We received a not very warm welcome at the GOP's little ThePersistence event tonight. Republicans are trying to keep folks like me off the ballot because they're scared of losing their grip on power & they don't want big donors to get sad. Support us at nateforutah.com!

Nate Blouins campaign collected over 1000 signatures in just 5 days and we didn’t spend millions of dollars to do it and I never had to get up at 4:30 am Nate Blouin

Every year I have served in the senate, Republicans have attacked the rights of trans people & the LGBTQ community. If this is the so-called Utah Way, I'm done with it. I'm proud to be endorsed by Rep. Zooey Zephyr, who knows what it means to stand up against bullies. Thanks, Zooey.

Donald Trump thinks he can steal this seat, but we’re here to tell him hell no. We’ve got several events across the region tomorrow and we need y’all to show up and help us get on the ballot to take our country back from Trump’s goons. We’ll be at Something Wicked Coffee in

Incredible to meet so many folks out here who are fed up and want to keep SLC ICE-free. To mobilize thousands in just a few hours sends a message that we’re sick of what we’re seeing, and we’re not gonna let it happen here. Abolishing ICE really is the moderate position. We’ll

We are grateful the Utah Senate Natural Resources, Agriculture, and Environment Committee is discussing Nate Blouin's SB 179 today, which would raise the minimum wage in Utah for the first time since 2009.

Utahns who are fed up with the status quo are realizing that our campaign represents the only viable alternative to more of the same politics that drove trust in government down and cost of living up. I'm running on my record of standing up for my constituents, not away from it.

If progressives want a real shot at winning blue seats, they're going to need to coalesce around a candidate like they did with Mejia. We can only win this if we work together. One candidate for each race. At least until we get RCV.

The new UT-CD1 would have gone to Harris by 24 points but some conservative Democrats are still pushing the narrative that it'll take a moderate to win.

I am excited to endorse Nate Blouin in Utah’s 1st District — this is a make-or-break moment for our democracy, and we need real fighters like Nate in Congress. Fighters who will stand up to billionaire Super PACs, defend our democracy, and push for bold policies like Medicare

After his endorsement from some House progressives, Nate Blouin told me today it is proof people in Utah “want a progressive fighter” “I don’t know that there’s much of a lane for someone in the moderate wing right now… People unanimously (have) said they want a progressive
