Utah Issues for 2023

---

Utah is battling an EPA rule, the 'Good Neighbor Rule.'  EPA wants to stop any coal power generation in Utah because it allegedly effects the Brown Cloud in Colorado's Front Range (Denver).  That means shutting down IPP, Bonanza Power, etc., et al  -  we aren't going to let them !!   Letting the Federal Gov't - let alone the EPA - tell us we can't generate power for our people is the very definition of 'Gov't Over-reach.'

Utah is attempting to drag the rest of us into the Electronic Age by using Blockchain security measures to assure us of the 'iron-clad' security of Digital Identification - such as digital drivers licenses we can carry on our cell phones, etc. Our answer to this is "Whatever the mind of man can conceive, the mind of another man can get around!"  We do not buy the 'iron-clad' nature of anything ... are you alright with this idea?

You have heard of Ranked Choice Voting, or RCV,  as an alternative to voting by regular ballots, there are even other forms of voting ... one of which is electronic voting from your cell phone, called Blockchain voting.  And Utah has already had one person vote via cell phone (Utah County in 2018, thank you Amelia!) and it was officially counted!  Now members of the Leg. want to spread it around as another alternative voting method.   WHY?

You may have heard about the Great Reset and the steps toward that include ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance scores) being used as part of our credit scores (GAG) as well as DEI (Diversity, Equality and Inclusion) training for children and adults - to teach us a political philosophical agenda ... a divide and conquer scenario.  Well, UTAH is a battleground to stop those Un-American and foreign based ideas from being implemented here. We are not alone !  Several more states have joined a lawsuit over ESG implementation and still more are fighting DEI.

We have already talked a little about Digital IDs, above, and no sooner than we have a handle on that greased pig, but they start talking about turning our money into "Digital Dollars" also called Federal Digital Currency.    It is a serious threat to individual liberty! Information the CATO Institute put together about this issue highlights the reasons why this must be stopped  (Link::https://www.cato.org/study/risks-of-cbdcs). Utah Representative Tyler Clancy has talked about a bill he will be running to try and stop it. .WE will be following this!
