The recent, rare "minority report" in the Utah Legislature may be the last. The House Rules Committee voted Wednesday to stop representatives from attaching to committee reports a written argument against a bill, allowing only the names of the dissenters to be read on the floor. They are considering stopping the names from being read aloud as well. The furor over minority reports started early in the legislative session when three Democrats attached their statement of dissent to a resolution supporting state authority over federally chartered credit unions. That minority report was read on the House floor and printed in the journal. The rules committee, dominated by Republicans, said such attachments are too cumbersome. House Resolution 7, sponsored by Rep. David Ure, R-Kamas, will now go before the full House. - Matt Canham
