🎙️ On the inaugural episode of This Week in Utah Politics:
📰 Tribune political reporter Emily Anderson Stern discusses her blockbuster story about how Gov. Spencer Cox was alerted about problems with the head of the Utah National Guard in 2021 but didn’t investigate until after the Army stepped in two years later.
⚖️ We dive into the Utah Supreme Court's ruling against the Legislature's gutting of an independent redistricting commission and how Utah politicos reacted to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
🗳️ (24:17) Ben Phillips from the Campaign Legal Center joins us to discuss the lawsuit challenging Utah's congressional maps as an illegal gerrymander.
“This case is about the fundamental right of Utah voters to have a meaningful say in how their government is structured,” Phillips explains.
🔄 (40:10) Finally, I walk you through Phil Lyman's latest effort to overturn his primary election loss to Spencer Cox.
