April Fools' Day: Legislative Bloopers Edition

Elevate Utah's Gabi Finlayson and Bryan Schott of Utah Political Watch talk legislative hits and misses, especially as state lawmakers are only 36 days away from being able to open a bill file or submit a request for appropriation for the 2027 General Session. Oh, and it's midterms in November. What could go wrong?

  • PURE CRAZY:  Elevate Utah's 2026 legislative tracker included a "Pure Crazy" category, with bill nicknames such as "chemtrail felonies" and "UN Bad, Utah Good."

  • CANDIDATE WATCH:  Utah Political Watch has set up trackers for state candidates and congressional candidates to help you follow them to the finish line.

Moon Watch

Skywatcher Leo T reports on today's Artemis II launch, scheduled to blast off at 4:30 MDT from the Kennedy Space Center's Launch Pad 39B, Florida. 

Delegation Gone Wrong

Franque Bains of the Utah Sierra Club and Grant Stevens of the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance discuss the renewed threat to Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and how Utah's congressional delegation is at the center of it. For a related petition, click here.
