Recently, the Utah Legislature approved a $21 billion annual budget, introduced a bill that would require women to watch an online video showing “medically accurate” images of an abortion before they received one and advanced a plan to do away with concealed-carry permits.
Beyond our state’s borders, it’s been a wild run for Sens. Mitt Romney and Mike Lee, as they vote President Joe Biden’s cabinet nominees up or down and look ahead to a second impeachment trial for former President Donald Trump next week.
There’s one place for you to find all the top political news of the day before you head out the door (or get on your Zoom calls), and that’s in our daily political newsletter “The Rundown.”
Reporter Bryan Schott is up long before the sun so the day’s newsletter is at the top of your inbox. He curates Utah political news from Tribune reporters and other local news sources, as well as the national headlines that will help you better understand what’s happening in the Beehive State.
