Retired Utah state park ranger, Joe Donnell, who dove into murky reservoir waters 7 times to pull a 9 yol boy out of a truck that had been submerged for 10 mins deserves an award. 🏅 No one expected Paxton to make it. He made it and is expected to make a full recovery.

Utah’s Governor: has power to tell us to wear masks & not eat or drink within 6 feet of a stranger at a restaurant. Also Utah’s Governor: has zero power to ban fireworks statewide. #Drought21 #utwx

A woman at the coffee shop complimented me on my new green jacket. I shouted, “$29.99, regular $159.00.” Like I was the loudest contestant on a game show. How about I teach myself to simply say “thank you”.

My heart wept when I read that in the final hours of the ‘22 session Utah lawmakers passed an all out ban on transgender females playing girls sports. Glad to see the governor says he will veto it.

I’m disappointed in the Utah legislature over the redistricting map controversy. To release drawings late Friday night & go into special session today to adopt decade-long maps they want doesn’t scream this process is about the people. Thanks anyway IRC, maybe next time. #utpol

And now they’re calling on parents to sub in Utah schools. At what point does someone in Utah lead us through this hot mess? Am I the only one who feels there’s a void in strong leadership in Utah right now? #Omicron

Just got an email from my kids’ school asking for parents to sign up as substitute teachers. So that’s going great. #Omicron

I’m tired of bad news. So here’s my good news. 6.5 years after my mammo, biopsy & lumpectomy turned up odd cells, my MRI came back clean today. Thanks to my docs @huntsmancancer for making sure the cluster of cells that scared me in ‘13 doesn’t become breast cancer. 💖

Releasing my calendar because as a long-standing member of the Utah media I will always believe in transparency from our public officials. The public has a right to know if Utah’s elected officials are doing the work of taxpayers when they’re on our dime. #utpol

I thought it would be worthy to one day, eons from now, when I hang up my news career, to be a school teacher. Loved raising kids, loved volunteering at school, loved my run as an education reporter. NVM. I wouldn’t know how to work for kids, while in fear of lawmakers & parents

No teacher should ever ask a student their pronoun verbally or on a questionnaire. They also aren’t allowed to ask students questions about their parents, home life, religion, drug or alcohol use, or anything that might disclose an emotional or mental issue

It sickens me that Utah’s transgender community must now fear criminal consequences for using a public restroom. I adamantly disagree with Utah lawmakers approval of that bill. I stand with @gopTODD and appreciate his votes opposing it. #utah #transgender #utpol

. @goud4utah have you ever wondered why you are unelectable? Your investigation request directed at @gopTODD is nuts! Thank you to those at the GOP meeting today who shut this nonsense down. Utah GOP needs to focus on winning. #utpol

Sometimes I wonder if some Utah politicians understand that education bans will leave our children uneducated. And one day when Utah kids graduate high school they may take their lack of education and move to a place called the United States to compete with well-educated grads.

NEW: Rep @JeffStenquist wants to keep sexuality, politics, and religion from being taught in Utah classrooms. He says a new bill will be different than last year's, which banned discussion/instruction on sexual orientation/gender identity in K-3. #utpol

Went to a car shop for my emissions & they “discovered” a big alignment problem. Took it to my trusted mechanic for a 2nd opinion. “Nothing wrong.” I felt the 1st place tried to take advantage of me because I’m a woman.

Utah Republican lawmakers for Ron #DeSantis may have set a new standard by using the Gold Room, I believe the most pristine room in Utah’s State Capitol, to hold a campaign press event for DeSantis. Seems fair to open it up to all to 200+ political parties in America.

@debbieksl So the state capital can be used for fund raising?

I’m sad. Don’t tell me things like, “At least they made it to the Rose Bowl”. No. Let me be sad for 24 hours and then you can talk some sense into me. #utah #RoseBowl
