Forward Party Candidate
People Ahead of Party Politics
J. Lowry Snow is running for Utah State Senate District 9 to deliver practical solutions on housing, clean air, and accountable governance—not status quo politics.
Core Priorities
Three Issues That Matter
Voter-Driven Governance
A modern, voter-driven approach to representation that gives District 9 residents a stronger and more continuous voice in the legislative process.
Constituents will be able to help identify priorities, provide real-time input, and engage meaningfully before decisions are made. This isn't about replacing representative democracy—it's about strengthening it.
Housing Affordability
Advancing bipartisan, data-driven solutions that expand housing supply, support smart density, and remove unnecessary regulatory barriers.
When housing costs rise faster than wages, communities start to break down. Addressing affordability is about keeping our neighborhoods functional and our economy strong.
Clean Air & Great Salt Lake
Strong, science-based policies that protect public health, responsibly manage water resources, and safeguard wildlife and surrounding communities.
The Great Salt Lake and clean air are vital to Utah's health, economy, and identity. Failing to act is an existential threat to the lake and a direct risk to our communities.
About the Candidate
A Legacy of Public Service
J. Lowry Snow's decision to run builds on a multigenerational family legacy of public service in Utah that dates back to the late 1800s.
Guided by that tradition—and by a deep commitment to Utah's communities and natural environment—Snow is launching a campaign focused on practical solutions, civic innovation, and accountable governance.
"My campaign is about putting people ahead of party politics and solving the problems Utahns face right now. Voters deserve a government that listens, adapts, and delivers results—not one constrained by rigid ideologies or political extremes."

"The Snow family has been integral to good government and collaborative problem-solving in Utah for decades, if not longer. We're thrilled to have J. Lowry Snow join our effort to continue that tradition."
Michelle Quist
Chair, Forward Party of Utah
"Salt Lake City depends on teachers, nurses, service workers and first responders being able to live near where they work. Addressing affordability isn't about politics—it's about keeping our neighborhoods functional and our economy strong."
