Senate leadership is now meeting with reporters about the morning floor time. @fox13#utpol#Utah
On his #COVID19 vaccine exemptions bill, Sen. Cullimore acknowledges business groups had some concerns which is why it was changed. Utah could also lose litigation against mandates. @fox13#utpol#Utah
Are the feds bluffing on OSHA? Sen. Cullimore says wait and see.
On redistricting maps, Sen. Sandall says it feels good to be at the end of the process.
Anything to say to protesters? “I think that voice is great… but your voice is embodied in those you elect.” #utpol#Utah
.@KarenMayneUT5 says she obviously disagrees with the map and SL Co. needs representation itself.
She says some counties have as much population as West Valley City has in just a few blocks.
HAPPENING NOW: Demonstrators gathering outside the Capitol to protest redistricting as the #utleg debates its final maps. @fox13#utpol#Utah
There’s about 100 people here calling for @GovCox to veto the redistricting maps. @fox13#utpol#Utah
OK, maybe closer to 200. @Mskriebe and @derekkitchen speaking to the crowd, telling them to vote out lawmakers who back the maps, run for office and support candidates who support independent redistricting. @fox13#utpol#Utah
OK, the Senate just PASSED bail reform, sending it to @GovCox for his signature.
They also just PASSED the revised state school board map (also going to @GovCox) and are now debating the Senate map. @fox13#utpol#Utah
The House chimes are going off so they're coming back into session. They've still got some bills to blast through, including #COVID19 vaccine exemptions.
