I recently talked with several families in my district who have been devastated by kratom use. The stories are heartbreaking and catastrophic. Kratom is dangerous and I am going to do something about it this upcoming legislative session. deseret.com/lifestyle/2025…

Michael Jolley This is Phil celebrating with me and Riley Gaines the day after the bill passed. There's also a photo of Riley supporting the bill. If the bill is so bad, why did they both support it? The truth is, it's not a bad bill. People are lying for attention. It's being labeled as bad

Last week, I had the privilege of joining American Preparatory Academy in Salem for their Veterans Day assembly. I was moved by the students’ songs and speeches honoring the bravest among us. Thank you to all our veterans for your service and sacrifice. Happy Veterans Day🇺🇸

I just got back from Diamond Fork. Two months ago, I saw the northern lights in Iceland. What I saw tonight doesn’t even compare. I could see the pink lights with my naked eye. Absolutely phenomenal. 🤯🤯🤯

Prop 4 was sold on the promise that it would encourage better general election contests between quality candidates from both parties who would have to persuade a wide variety of voters. Under Judge Gibson’s ruling, Prop 4 does exactly the opposite. #utpol UtahGOP Utah Democratic Party

Kratom is having a devastating impact on Utah families. It’s addictive, expensive, and far too easy to get. I am working on legislation to protect Utahns from this dangerous product. kutv.com/news/local/gas…

I recently visited several gas station to see how easy it is to buy kratom. I found that most kratom products were displayed right at the checkout. I found kratom products just 100 yards from a middle school. At one location, I was able to purchase kratom without even ID.

As an officer of the court, I’m disappointed in my own profession. The ruling stepped way outside a judge’s lane and ignored the Utah Constitution’s clear separation of powers.

Yesterday in committee, we heard directly from Utah physicians, the state medical examiner, and other public health experts about the growing dangers of kratom. In the last five years, Utah has seen nearly 160 deaths involving kratom. It’s time to protect Utahns.
