@agardiner14 Be careful Adam. People who don’t dress up for flights might just be the next group of traitors! You could end up in a Honduran prison.

@SenJohnCurtis Thank you Senator for your principled leadership.

@phil_lyman The Grubers are not connected power brokers nor political donors.Anyone who knows them knows they are extremely hard working public employees doing their best to keep Utah amazing.If you feel they are overpaid, provide a market analysis, rather than stooping to personal attacks.

@OcrazioCornPop @GovCox He’s not talking about Charlie.

There are many who believe that we have too many workers and not enough jobs in construction. That narrative is false. We need people to build.

Atop this hill off U.S. 89 between Fairview and Mt. Pleasant, you’ll see our nation’s flag. My cousin, Scott Mower, and some of his friends put it up at the old family farm in order to remind everyone who drives by that they love our country. 🇺🇸 God bless America.

[Governor Cox @GovCox]

We’re making it easier for Utah families to find a place to call home.

Our second-term plan will help build 150,000 new housing units, including 35,000 starter homes, by cutting red tape and giving the free market the tools it needs to succeed.

@locke_or_demos @highergroundUT They are not setting policy, they are implementing policy. Big difference.

[Steve Waldrip @WaldripSteve]

@highergroundUT Imagine you are UDOT, you are going to build a road, and DWQ was planning a water line upgrade, and UTA wanted to create bus rapid transit. As a taxpayer, I want those entities talking to each other so the work only has to be done once. Not that hard to understand.

[Steve Waldrip @WaldripSteve]

This is a frightening statistic. 68%+ is great, but a decline means a decline in stability, economic growth, and upward mobility. Utah has been the most upwardly mobile state for the past while (couple of decades?) That will change as a direct result of increased housing prices.

[Jim Dalrymple II @Dalrymple]

I get a lot of housing pitches, but thought this would be of interest to some here: "Utah records the sharpest homeownership decline in the U.S."

[Steve Waldrip @WaldripSteve]

Great great initiative!

[Governor Cox @GovCox]

Utah showed up for teachers today with a record crowd! Thanks to all of the educators and community leaders who were able to join us for the Show Up for Teachers conference.

You chose to spend part of your summer sharing ideas, recharging, and strengthening the work you do for our kids. I’m grateful for every one of you — and for Abby’s leadership to make today possible. Together, we’ll keep building classrooms where every student can succeed.

[Governor Cox @GovCox]

When our founders spoke of “the pursuit of happiness,” they weren’t talking about comfort or ease. They meant a life of purpose — built on responsibility, service, and self-improvement.

As we approach 250 years of the American experiment, Utah has a chance to show what that really looks like. Let’s build something worthy of the ideals we inherited.

Today, in collaboration with governors across the West, I’m launching Energy Superabundance — an initiative to expand production, modernize transmission, and support the advanced technologies that will power a more reliable and affordable grid.

We’re unlocking prosperity for every family, farm, and business throughout the country. 🇺🇸

⁦@RepBlakeMoore⁩ your suit has never looked so good! Thanks for the loaner! #forgotmysuit

@mattwaldrip What a sad human being to have so lost touch with real life and people that he thought that was clever.

[David Wolpe @RabbiWolpe]

As a synagogue Rabbi for years I know that institutions are hard to create and easy to destroy. Tread carefully; many desperately need reform but don’t take sledgehammers to Steinways.

[Steve Waldrip @WaldripSteve]

@mattwaldrip Oh Nostradamus, you inspire me!

[Governor Cox @GovCox]

Everybody in Utah wants their kids to live near them, not with them.

We’re working hand in hand with our cities and towns while partnering with builders and developers because we want the rising generation to have a real shot at the American dream. And at the heart of that dream is homeownership.
