Representative Angela Romero has always had a passion to serve. Growing up in Tooele, Utah, Angela was raised by her grandparents.

Working with local government, Angela oversees community programs and initiatives in the Division of Youth and Family Programs, including supervising the YouthCity Government Program. At the state legislature, she champions for issues including victim’s rights, preventing sexual assault and domestic violence, and promotes clean energy initiatives that will provide Utah a sustainable and stable future. In addition to her professional career and legislative duties, Angela currently chairs the National Hispanic Caucus of State Legislator’s Education Task Force and serves on the Latina Legislative Initiative Committee, Utah’s Rape Kit Processing Work Group, Friends for Sight Board of Directors, Salt Lake Acting Company Board of Directors and is the National Foundation for Women Legislator’s Utah State Director. Representative Romero also received the 2015 YWCA Public Official of the Year Award for her work on sexual violence, immigration, economic and environmental justice issues.

I met Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman through former Utah House Democratic Leader Jennifer Seelig. We’ve shared many political spaces and advocated for reproductive justice together since this introduction. Melissa was fierce and never backed down. She will be greatly missed. My heart goes out to Melissa’s family, the people of Minnesota, and our country. Political violence and hate have no place in our democracy.
