Salt Lake City – Utah’s history is defined by resilience and ambition—a place where towering mountains and expansive deserts have fueled generations to dream fearlessly and achieve greatness. Today, the Senate Majority carries that torch, focused on powering Utah’s future with the innovation and foresight that have defined the state for decades.
“Powering Utah’s future goes beyond meeting today’s demands—it’s about building on the successes of the past while addressing the needs of tomorrow and envisioning bold possibilities for what lies ahead,” said Senate President J.
