Remember, vote NO on Amendment B this November! This is just another version of the ongoing ballot initiative saga that we've been dealing with for eight years. Only this time, they've dressed it up in fancy tax language to make it seem like it's not what it actually is.

If you’re having to justify the military connection of a controversial data center months after the fact, then it probably never had that connection to begin with. MIDA needs to be reined in or disbanded during this upcoming legislative session. buff.ly/JVMDaW5

Although election monitors are legally mandated to not interfere with voters at polling locations, it isn’t hard to imagine that something more nefarious than simple monitoring will be taking place on Election Day next week. buff.ly/e1qZpwt

“Neutral” isn’t costless when a U of U nursing student was detained by ICE for 15 days & the federal government is suing to end in-state tuition for Dreamers. The campus police commitment is the part that matters, & students should hold leaders to it. buff.ly/Gfw2FyW

A massive gas-fired campus that somehow leaves the lake better off is an extraordinary claim, and the filing doesn’t show the math. The protest window is the public’s chance to demand it be better. buff.ly/HNzO9x6

Utah keeps winning best-state rankings while its residents say life is getting harder. A “starter” home at $450,000 is out of reach for most young families, and the state is far behind even on that. buff.ly/qcgIBJt

Lawmakers have already passed laws expanding homeless shelter capacity when temps drop dangerously low during winter. As our summers grow hotter, they now need to do something about expanding capacity and providing resources for when temps rise. buff.ly/G6wA0eq

Utah Civic Compact held a press conference last week during which they urged the Utah Department of Transportation to end its contract with Flock. What you need to know & what you can do to help -> buff.ly/6GhxXeN

The UDOT contract with Flock allows UDOT to terminate the contract if it “determines that the public does not support [Flock’s] activities,” something that Utah Civic Compact says is evidenced by widespread public outcry in recent months.
