Health and Nutrition Legislative Priorities:

From Voices for Utah Children, Senior Policy Analysts both, Jessie Mandle and Anna Thomas talked about Senate Bill 158 Children's Health Coverage Amendments and asked people to reach out to their legislators and encourage them to support this bill, designed to close the gap of children in Utah going without healthcare insurance. We also shared comments from the bill's sponsor Senator Luz Escamilla.
