Nate Blouin has always fought for people who get written off – the working families juggling debt, healthcare costs, and a political system that too often forgets them.
He knows what it’s like to watch bills pile up and rely on public assistance just to stay afloat. That’s why Nate has spent his career taking on powerful interests and pushing for real change.
When Nate moved to Utah at 19, he came with a passion for the great outdoors and the range of opportunities for young people that no other state has to offer.
He is a proud graduate of Salt Lake Community College and University of Utah. After a health scare right out of school, Nate found himself juggling student loan debt, even relying on SNAP just to get by. After earning a degree in Public Affairs, he worked to bring renewable solutions to bring down the cost of energy for Utah families.
In 2022, Nate beat a 36-year incumbent State Senator by over 50 points. He now serves in the State Senate, where he fights for progressive causes in a chamber where too many of our party prioritize deal-making over values. Nate is proud of being labeled a "punk" after standing up to Republican leadership and getting his mic cut off on the Senate floor on numerous occasions. He and his wife Jackie, a lifelong Utahn from Murray who practices law here in Salt Lake City, recently bought their first home in Millcreek.
This race is about whether we meet this moment with courage -- because we’re not going to beat Donald Trump and the billionaires buying influence in Washington unless we’re willing to fight.
Nate Blouin speaks truth to power, stands his ground, and refuses to back down. Utah deserves that kind of representative.
