Three members of Pres. Donald Trump's cabinet visited the Beehive State this week. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, and EPA Director Lee Zeldin met with state lawmakers and members of the state's congressional delegation. Our expert panel discusses why the three federal leaders have high praise for Utah.
Kennedy specifically praised a bill recently passed by the Utah legislature that bans fluoride from water systems in the state. The move aligns with Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" initiatives.
Utah leaders are also weighing in on Pres. Trump's latest round of tariffs. The fear is whether or not economic uncertainty over the executive orders will push the country toward a recession. We evaluate how Utah is being impacted, and what Gov. Spencer Cox is doing to shore up the state's economy.
Union organizers in Utah have less than a week to gather signatures in their attempt to get a voter referendum on the state's ballot. The group "Protect Utah Workers" is made up of several labor unions in the state. They want Utah voters to decide whether or not to overturn HB 267 (Rep. Jordan Teuscher, R-South Jordan). That bill passed by the legislature and signed by Gov. Cox prohibits public labor unions from collective bargaining.
Host Jason Perry is joined by Robert Spendlove, senior economist with Zions Bank — McKenzie Romero, editor-in-chief of Utah News Dispatch — and Chris Bleak, partner with RRJ Consulting.
