#1) MAHA – About corporate interests
This campaign email aligns Phil Lyman with the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement and argues that government officials should prioritize public health, transparency, and accountability over corporate interests. Lyman criticizes Rep. Celeste Maloy for voting against an amendment that removed legal protections for pesticide manufacturers from a farm bill, arguing that her vote favored industry interests over consumers. He connects this issue to broader concerns about corporate influence in politics, environmental oversight, and public trust, while presenting his campaign as an effort to challenge powerful interests and advocate for Utah families, farmers, and local communities.
#2) AI and Data Centers – About the money
Phil argues that political support for large-scale data center development in Utah is being driven by outside corporate interests rather than local communities. Lyman criticizes Celeste Maloy’s support for the proposed Stratos data center project, citing concerns about environmental review, water use, and public opposition, while positioning himself as an advocate for greater transparency and local input. He also highlights nearly $900,000 in advertising support from an AI industry-backed super PAC, contending that the spending reflects undue corporate influence in the race and reinforcing his argument that elected officials should be accountable to voters rather than powerful outside interests.
#3) Challenging Institutional Incumbents – Your Turn
This campaign email portrays Phil Lyman as a challenger to the political establishment, emphasizing government accountability, constitutional limits, and local representation. Lyman contrasts his positions with those of Rep. Celeste Maloy on issues such as war powers, immigration policy, and the proposed Stratos data center project, arguing that government officials have prioritized political and corporate interests over community concerns. He also urges supporters to become actively involved in the election, stressing the importance of voter participation in a race he expects to be decided by a narrow margin and encouraging volunteers, donations, and early ballot submission.
#4) H-1B Work Visa Policy – Local jobs First
Phil argues that current H-1B visa policies prioritize foreign labor over qualified Utah workers and graduates. Lyman criticizes the University of Utah’s use of the H-1B program and Rep. Celeste Maloy’s support for guest-worker initiatives, contending that local job seekers should receive priority for employment opportunities. He endorses the End H-1B Visa Abuse Act of 2026, which would tighten restrictions on the program and increase protections for American workers, and pledges to support the legislation if elected to Congress.
