Great news from the U.S. Supreme Court today. The ruling upholding Texas’ age verification law is a big win for protecting kids online. It validates Utah’s efforts to shield minors from harmful content — and we’re just getting started. We’ll keep fighting to keep our kids safe.

1.3 million Utahns are living in drought conditions, and we’ve already seen 380 wildfires burn more than 43,000 acres this year. This Sunday, I’m inviting all Utahns to join Abby and me in a day of prayer and fasting for rain. Whatever your faith or belief, please take a moment

Utah Governor Cox is asking Utahns, regardless of faith and beliefs, to join in a Day of Prayer and Fasting for rain this Sunday. He spoke with me in Sanpete County today about his State Declaration. We’ll have stories about it on our KSL 5 TV 5:00 and 6:00 newscasts. #ksltv #utah

As the Forsyth Fire reminds us, Utah is dry and vulnerable right now. Please use Fire Sense: secure your trailer chains, skip backyard fireworks in favor of community shows, and keep sparks away from our landscapes. We can’t thank our brave firefighters enough. Let’s do our part

Huge congrats to Draper’s own Caleb Olson who just won the iconic 100.2-mile Western States Endurance Run with the second-fastest time in race history. Even more inspiring? He was met at the finish line by his wife and 7-week-old son. Way to represent Utah, Caleb! More here:

Today, I issued a declaration to honor the courageous wildland firefighters who protect our homes, families, and landscapes. The best way we can thank them is to prevent the next fire. That means following local rules and using fireworks wisely. Let’s do our part this season.

Today’s passage of the budget bill is a win for Utah families: it delivers meaningful tax relief, invests in energy abundance, and, thanks to bipartisan teamwork, preserves every state’s freedom to craft commonsense AI safeguards. Thanks to our delegation for getting it across

For nearly 250 years, Americans have sacrificed and served to protect this great experiment in self-government. And while we still fall short, we keep working to form a more perfect union. We lift each other, we show up for our neighborhoods, and we choose unity over division.
