‘Trib Talk’: Utah’s tax reform push moves into the next phase with no clear direction on where it will end

A Utah legislative task force has spent much of the summer touring the state and hosting town hall meetings on tax reform after a bill earlier this year collapsed under public criticism.

Now that this so-called listening tour has wrapped up, lawmakers enter phase two, where they’re going to try to come up with some concrete proposals in time for January’s session.

On today’s episode of “Trib Talk," Tribune government editor Dan Harrie and government reporter Bethany Rodgers interview Sen. Lyle Hillyard, R-Logan, and Rep. Francis Gibson, R-Mapleton, about the next steps for the tax reform task force, and the broader conversation around tax reform at the Utah Legislature.
