Run the federal government more leanly

Curtis supports a leaner federal government and points to his record as Provo mayor as an example for the federal budget. As mayor, he cut the city budget by more than 8%; the campaign site does not specify a federal budget-cut target or how he would achieve one.

Context: The stated budget cut was made to Provo’s city budget, not the federal budget.

In their own words

running a leaner government is important
