'On Friday, Utah became the first state in the nation to enact a law prohibiting the display of LGBTQ Pride flags and other unsanctioned flags on government property, including public schools.
The legislation, HB77, or the “Flag Display Amendments,” was passed by the Utah Legislature earlier this month and became law without Governor Spencer Cox’s signature because he declined to sign or veto it.
Effective May 7, 2025, the law restricts flag displays to a specific list, including the U.S. flag, the Utah state flag, military flags, and a few other approved categories.
There will be a $500 daily fine for any flag violations.'
I must have misread that article I was sent. I thought it said he signed it, maybe I missed the part where he didn't sign it & his Pic was just plastered to the story.

Thank you for this. I couldn't believe that Cox would sign this, I am still amazed he signed the ban on flouride.
Actually he didn't. He said he wouldn't veto it. But, he didn't sign off on it either.
