Utah’s SB 109 (2026) sponsored by Senator Todd Weiler eliminates the cause of action in “alienation of affection” cases. What this would is that the state government no longer recognizes marriage as a contract worthy of protection. At its core, marriage is a private contract and a religious rite. As a private contract, it is… Read more…

A very strange thing happened in Utah’s 2024 election cycle: Three prominent candidates for state and national office won the Republican nominating convention, and yet somehow did not appear on the November general election ballot. How can you win a nomination, and yet not even appear on the general election ballot? The answer? SB54, a… Read more…

I recently watched Daniela Cambone’s interview with G. Edward Griffin, the author of the book The Creature from Jekyll Island. In the interview, he made several connections that I had learned for myself before encountering his assessment. He exposed the duality of Communism and Nazism, showing that in practical terms, they are identical. I had… Read more…

Utah House Bill 330 is not a narrow liability clarification as advertised, despite the clever cover story by Rep. Colin Jack that it was harming the poor electric companies because of existing regulatory policy and judicial overreach. In lines 36–45, it creates an affirmative defense whenever harm results from conduct, an omission, or a condition… Read more…

The Utah legislature just recommended a bill that erases the probable cause requirement and enables warrantless search and seizure of CHILDREN from Utah homes. Actually, there are two bills, HB 105 and SB 124 and they are word-for-word identical. Like the Hydra of Greek mythology, they do this multiple-head approach when they want insurance that… Read more…

It’s high time I posted to my site the petition for a writ of certiorari that I submitted to the United States Supreme Court last year. It has often been taught in schools that judges in the United States have the ultimate authority to interpret the Constitution, and that their opinions should hold the weight… Read more…

Utah H.B. 126 “Micro-Education Entity Facility Amendments” does significantly more than merely modernize facility and safety requirements for small educators. It eliminates natural growth options for such educational businesses. The bill negatively affects school choice. Cost to enroll a child in a nature-based homeschool or homestead school, or any other small educational business could increase… Read more…

I just got off the phone with the Utah County clerk’s office about the missing middle names from the candidate filings this year. The supervisor to whom my question was raised informed me that they had been instructed by the Lieutenant Governor Deidre Henderson’s office not to allow any candidates to file a declaration of… Read more…

It’s barely been 24 hours since filing for office and the process has already given rise to a new needed legislative proposal to correct a major error installed by a bill during the 2025 legislative session, which I am going to call SB54 2.0 (you’ll see why). On Thursday, I filed to run for the… Read more…

I have hit the ground running with legislative proposals that resolve Utah’s longest-standing contentions about election integrity, separation of powers and checks and balances. If you’re fed up with increasing housing and living costs, concerned about evaporating water rights, collective bargaining and the right to sue civilly, criminal justice, redistricting shenanigans, judicial overreach, urban sprawl… Read more…
