Henderson to run for District 38 seat


Charles Henderson, a community activist, announces his bid to run for District 38.

“I am pleased to announce my candidacy for the Utah State Legislature in District 38,” said Henderson. “I am running because I believe the residents in Legislative District 38 deserve a strong principled leader, working for their interest.

“As one who has worked to make our community livable and appealing to all that live and visit, I have kept one very important belief in the forefront of my thoughts and actions - that as an elected official, I work and represent the residents of our community.

“As a Legislator, I am committed to administering responsible, transparent, and open government. I will continue to work to enhance transit and educational opportunities, promote our local economy, protect our environment and advance public safety.”

Henderson, who was recently appointed by Mayor Peter Corroon to the UTA Board of Trustees representing unincorporated Salt Lake County, is the Democratic Legislative Chair for District 38, as well as the Vice-Chairman for both Salt Lake County Community Economic Development Advisory Committee and Kearns Community Council.

Henderson is a Utah native and a father of four. He attended the University of Utah and Westminster College.
