WEEK 2 UPDATES: JANUARY 29-FEBRUARY 2
Dear Business Community,

It’s been a busy first two weeks of the session on Capitol Hill. Our team has been hard at work meeting with legislators, testifying on a number of bills and monitoring over one-hundred pieces of legislation.

We have already seen strides on significant issues including talent retention and workforce development, transportation, efforts to improve educational outcomes and ensuring Utah’s continued economic development success.

We invite you to remain actively involved in advancing the business community’s priorities during the next few weeks of the session. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or concerns.

Best,

The Salt Lake Chamber Policy Team
