I was up at the Capitol on Friday. I was able to talk to several of our legislators about our organization and our concern about the overreach of the federal government. I felt it was very productive. Our Zoom call is on Monday at 9:00 pm.
Reminder about our Impact Council Zoom call TONIGHT at 9 pm. Here is the Zoom link:

TALKING POINTS FOR FEB 7 THROUGH FEB 18
*Share your thoughts on plurality voting versus one vote one person. Plurality voting such as RCV makes audits infeasible. Express your views on audits and how they safeguard elections. You can mention HB 155 specifically which is Rep Lyman's bill that would require an independent auditor.
*Communicate to your reps your views regarding the massive amount of land and corresponding resources the federal government has jurisdiction over within the borders of Utah. Send them the link to this article or share a few points from it.

*Thank your house member for supporting the Founders and Constitution Recognition Bill. As of the day these points were written all of the house members except for Rep Hollins and Rep Garner voted in support, with Rep Romero absent. The senate has not yet voted. Let them know the importance you place on civics education.
*In our February Zoom call we talked about individual liberty and how it is the hope of all mankind; this includes being able to speak and act according to your set of beliefs. Explain why the Constitutional line that divides the state and federal jurisdictions is directly linked to our individual liberty and that our state leaders must jealously patrol that line.
*Let your house member know your feelings on the new flag. As of the day these points were written the senate had already voted on the new flag. "We have combined much that is beautiful, historical, and inspirational into our state flag. The desire of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers is to place the flag with its history before all the people, for with knowledge comes reverence and appreciation."

Lara Christensen Impact Chair for district 61 Rep Judkins is our spotlight.
My name is Lara Christensen. Eventhough I live in Orem now, I have lived many other places including Boston, Arizona and Idaho. In all those areas I have worked on Political campaigns, hosted studies of the constitution and produced a conservative expo with Speakers in Boston.
I have a lovely family of five daughters and fourteen grandchildren who live in three states...Utah, Texas and Florida which I am so happy about as I love visiting Texas and Florida. Thank heavens they are all good conservatives and raised their Mom right !!!
God, Family and Country are my priorities and any things I like to enjoy are under those three. 🌟My favorite hobby is something I am addicted to... called conservative talk radio.

I sent a text recently to my local representative asking for her vote to rid Utah of Rank Choice Voting and support one person one choice voting on election day...plus voter ID....Election Integrity. My freedom and my vote are very important to me. I keep tabs on my representatives inside of Utah and those who represent us in Washington DC. I call their office about my thoughts on legislative issues a long with email and direct contact when I know of their meetings/town Halls. I strive to remind them of our God given rights under the Bill of Rights in the Constitution and that we derive those rights from God and not from government.

VERY IMPORTANT BILL!
I just read an email from Rep Ivory. He has an extremely important energy bill HB425 in committee Wednesday morning at 8:00 am 110 senate building. The EPA intends to shut down all coal powered facilities in Utah by 2026. His bill pushes back and helps create more energy independence in Utah. This bill has huge federalism implications as we all know the federal government has no authority, let alone the EPA to dictate such edicts. This must be stopped! Please attend if possible to speak favorably about the bill during public comment.
