Biography

Brian M. Greene is an American politician and a Republican member of the Utah House of Representatives representing District 57 since January 1, 2013.

Early life and career

Greene earned his BA from Brigham Young University and his JD from its J. Reuben Clark Law School. He works as an attorney and small business owner and lives in Pleasant Grove, Utah with his wife Renee and three children.

Political career

When District 57 incumbent Republican Representative Craig Frank ran for the Utah State Senate in 2012 and left the seat open, Greene was selected as one of two candidates from the Republican convention for the June Republican Primary which he won with 2,057 votes (55.4%) and won the November General election with 11,029 votes (85.8%) against Democratic nominee Scott Gygi.

In 2014, Greene defeated both John Stevens and Holly Richardson in the Republican convention and then continued on to defeat Democratic nominee Michael Plowman in the November 4, 2014 general election with 6,317 votes (82.5%).

In 2015, during a committee hearing on a measure which sought to remove the consent element from certain sexual activities, Greene questioned whether it was good public policy to make sexual acts between otherwise consenting adults subject to a strict liability standard. Unfortunately, the media, apparently more interested in salacious headlines, seized on only a narrow aspect of the discussion and reported that Greene had questioned whether sex with an unconscious spouse should be considered rape . Greene later apologized for the misunderstanding about his comments and said media reports had taken his words out of context.

During the 2016 legislative session, Greene served on the Natural Resources, Agriculture, and Environmental Quality Appropriations Subcommittee, the House Judiciary Committee as well as the House Revenue and Taxation Committee.
