Utah Governor Issues Vetoes As Deadline Hits

(Salt Lake City, UT) — Utah Governor Spencer Cox is vetoing two bills and allowing another to become law without his signature as the legislative deadline arrives. Cox rejected a measure that would have added internet access on some rural school buses, citing concerns about increased screen time, and also vetoed a bill tied to reporting professional misconduct due to conflicts with existing law. Meanwhile, a proposal creating a precious metals-backed electronic payment system will take effect without his signature.
