Join me in promoting true principles.
Nationally, 61% rate local government positively, but in a recent survey conducted by the county, only 30% of Utah County approve of our Commissioners.
With reckless spending, constant salary increases, increased department travel fund, staff growth there is theft to tax payers. We need better problem solving and frugal management of budgets to stop property tax hikes.
There has been talk of moving to a more centralized power form of government for the county. Power should be balanced, checked and authorized by the public's consent.
Plato

Where do I lean politically?
Faction thinking sent America backwards, putting loyalty to party not principle. This was amplified by our own apathy. I'm not right, middle or left. I simply follow constitutional principles that advance Liberty. (both the U.S AND The State Constitution).
I can't promise to agree with everyone as some fake virtue signaling.
I do promise that I will LISTEN and take that into careful consideration while I act according to foundational truths.
Change begins when we take responsibility and ownership. I’m running as an Independent American, and with your help, this campaign for the people can go far.

Your Trust Means Alot
You are a soul of worth, not a servant to the state. Government exists to protect your rights not make life harder. Decisions made by the county shape the community, and whether it is affordable, or pushes you out. Infrastructure growth should be sustainable and economical.
Jacob Oaks combines his passion for community building grounded in principle, with his experience in business management. His leadership style encourages open dialogue and collaboration among diverse perspectives.
We work to unite over 20 civic engagement organizations to create a stronger coalition. By collaborating, he aims to amplify our impact and address community needs effectively. Good partnerships with cities and the boards the county commission sits on can go a long way in helping us thrive.
