The campaign to name the new federal courthouse in Salt Lake City after Orrin Hatch, a leading conservative hypocrite, should be rejected.
Hatch feasted at the public trough and deprived me of having a senator for 42 years. The carpetbagger from Pittsburgh never represented even one of my views, and he sucked up to Trump like a pathetic groupie.
If you want to name something after him, make it a feedlot.
Manny Garcia, Salt Lake City
