The Tribune's questionnaire does not state an occupation for Last. [1]

In their own words: the Tribune questionnaire

On trust, Last points to special deals for friends and family and the MIDA organization, and pledges to recuse himself from legislation or votes involving conflicts of interest. On affordability he supports expanding housing supply with incentives for projects committed to affordable homes, a higher state minimum wage, easier Medicaid access and less paperwork for eligible people. [1]

On water he says there is no easy fix and that restoring the Great Salt Lake will require sacrifices from all stakeholders, suggesting more than a million acre-feet of diverted water reach the lake each year, less turfgrass water use and fewer alfalfa exports. He answered Against on both Constitutional Amendment A and Amendment B. Bitner did not respond to the questionnaire. [1]
