Keep in mind that @tvilleut was unincorporated until 1996. Because the county controlled land-use until that time, the city didn’t really get a chance to plan because it was mostly built out. There’s a reason that we support wall-to-wall cities in #slco. Local control is best.

The SLCo Council approved the My County Rec Pass and today we got an update. Since the program started last June, 78,828 kids ages 0-18 have signed up. This programs gets kids off screens, improves health and gives them more opportunities to connect. #utpol #slco

This provides a great framework for Utah as we work to keep our kids safe online. Luckily we’ve already been working on several of these, but there is always more work to be done. #utpol #utleg

When are we going to admit as a society that porn is damaging our kids? This article is a wake-up call for those who think it's harmless. #utpol #OfficeofFamilies afterbabel.com/p/the-mass-tra…

Too much screen time can delay speech, interfere with motor skills, disrupt sleep, and hinder emotional and social development. It’s not just about what our kids are watching-it’s also about what they’re missing when screens replace real-world connection. deseret.com/opinion/2025/0…

It was a great honor to join Nic Dunn and Beth Akers on the Sutherland Institute podcast with my colleague Melinda Brock from American Institute for Boys and Men to chat about the decline of male enrollment in higher education, the value of college, and how we can create pathways for upward mobility.
