And with that, the 2023 Utah Legislative Session has officially come to a close. Lawmakers plowed through hundreds of bills in just 45 days, and 575 pieces of legislation made it all the way to Gov. Spencer Cox’s desk. We speak with legislative leadership and the governor to break down how the session went and take a look at the top bills that passed.
And with that SINE DIE!!! The 2023 Utah legislative session is officially OVER!
