Utah Democrats are urging GOP lawmakers not to overrule the will of voters by changing the laws they approve on the ballot, like Medicaid expansion.

The statement came in response to Gov. Gary Herbert’s State of the State address, where he said the measure will need adjustments to keep future costs in check.

Though he didn’t support any specific proposals, state senators have advanced a plan to limit enrollment and impose a work requirement, changes that advocates say would gut the measure and could postpone it indefinitely. Herbert says he expects the measure could be implemented without delay even after revisions.

But Democratic House minority leader Brian King says lawmakers shouldn’t be quick to overrule the will of Utah voters. He says further changes to voter-approved measures would be undemocratic and wrong.
