Bringing Utah’s water experts together to plan for the future

This month, the Utah Senate, Utah House of Representatives, and Utah Department of Natural Resources brought together industry leaders, policy experts, elected officials, and stakeholders at the fourth annual Utah Water Symposium. 


This year’s Utah Water Pioneer award was given to Zach Renstrom, general manager for the Washington County Water Conservancy District and a prime example of leadership to the water community. The Utah Pioneer Award highlights a forward-thinking Utahn making a big difference for our state’s water resources. 

 


Election Security

Election security is a top concern for the Legislature and something we in Utah have taken numerous steps to protect. Thankfully, we have had no incidents similar to Colorado where election information was compromised. Click here to learn more about the safeguards in Utah’s elections.

 

Utah corrections officers play a crucial role in public safety

Corrections officers in our prisons, county jails, and community correctional centers work out of the spotlight day in and day out, playing an unheralded but essential role in keeping our communities safe.

 

Energy

Utah is taking a realistic, all-of-the-above approach to energy. Even with burdensome federal regulations and policies piling on, we are committed to fighting back and passing policies that ensure Utah’s current and future energy needs are met.


Paid Student Teachers

During the 2024 session, the Legislature passed H.B. 221, which compensated student teachers in Utah for their work. Future educators can now receive a $6,000 stipend during their semester in the classroom.

 

Veterans Day

I want to sincerely thank the brave men and women who have served our country. Their sacrifices and bravery have shaped our nation and protected the freedoms we all enjoy. Thank you for your service and the countless ways you continue to contribute to our community!

 

Happy Thanksgiving!
