HB 267 Help us Gather Signatures

House Bill 267, signed into law by Governor Cox on Valentine’s day. strips public employee unions and associations of collective bargaining rights. This is incredibly harmful to our teachers, fire fighters, police, and public health workers. By extension, this is bad for all of us because it means these professionals have no united voice in discussing safety and working conditions, never mind pay and benefits. Teacher working conditions are student learning conditions, and teachers should have a voice in those conversations. Collective bargaining in Utah was already voluntary, but this law forbids it. That means no professionally agreed upon contracts and no one to verify due process. 

YOU can help protect Utah’s workers by signing the referendum petition that will put this law to a vote of the people. Better yet, YOU can help by collecting signatures from friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers to give them the final say on this question.

Donald Trump is Making Life Worse for Working Families

  • In his latest attack on working families, Trump is going after the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) – installing the chief architect of Project 2025 to dismantle the bureau that has returned over $21 billion to consumers and stopped financial institutions like banks and lenders from ripping off working people.  

  • As Trump continues to wreak havoc on hardworking Americans, 66 percent of them believe he’s not doing enough to lower costs — breaking his biggest campaign promise less than a month into his second term. What else does Trump care more about than lowering costs? Purging the Kennedy Center board and appointing himself chair, apparently. 

  • Instead of making life better for working people, Donald Trump and Elon Musk are moving with dizzying speed to dismantle the policies, protections, and institutions that aid and defend working families.  

  • Trump and his billionaire backers are hellbent on attacking working families in order to enrich themselves.

Instead of Fighting for Americans, Trump is Too Busy Giving Billionaire Elon Musk Access to Your Social Security Number

  • As he ignores the promises he made to lower costs for working families, Trump is granting Elon Musk full access to highly sensitive government data — giving Musk the ability to halt Social Security and health care payments. 
  • On TIME Magazine’s new cover, that isn’t Trump sitting behind the Resolute desk. No one elected Elon, but he’s already the worst president in American history.
  • In fact, Trump recently said that Elon will review (read: dismantle) any agency Trump points to.
  • Democrats are fighting back: Last week, House Democrats introduced the Taxpayer Data Protection Act to protect taxpayers’ sensitive financial information from Elon Musk and his cronies.
