Final recap video of the 2020 Utah Legislative Session

The 2020 Utah Legislative session has come to a close. It was an interesting 45-days. Some of the highlights included significant legislation on the pro-life front, protecting Second Amendment rights, protecting law enforcement, and one of the most significant pieces of legislation included two bills related to education funding. One bill creates a process to provided on-going growth and stabilization of the education fund based on student growth and per pupil funding even in times of economic downturn. The proposal requires a Utah Constitutional change and only goes into effect if the people of Utah pass it in November.
