Legislative roundup: Emergency powers, transgender athletes, teaching sex consent, rioters, mascots, guns

SALT LAKE CITY State lawmakers are considering ways to limit the governor s power in an emergency like the COVID-19 pandemic and strengthening their own hand in declaring when an emergency is over. The Utah Legislature is also in a brewing firestorm over transgender rights as it wraps up its fifth week of meetings that included the House passing a ban on transgender athletes competing in girls sports in the K-12 public school system. Vickers bill would limit the duration of a public health order to 30 days. It would also only allow the Legislature to extend or terminate an order and would give lawmakers the power to end an emergency earlier than that 30-day time period. The bill would also ban restrictions on religious gatherings and prohibits a local health department from issuing a restriction without the approval of the county executive, such as the county mayor or commission.

Utah egg farms push rules to free hens from cages, avert possible tighter regulations

SALT LAKE CITY In an effort to head off potentially more restrictive measures, Utah egg-producers have been working with legislators on a bill mandating a cage-free environment for hens by 2025. Without egg farmers being a part of this conversation, policy would have been written into law that would not be aligned with our production standards and animal husbandry principles, and placed on a timeline to compliance that would be both physically and financially unattainable as a family farm and as an industry, Jeremy Rigtrup, owner and operator of Rigtrup Egg Farm, said. The driving factor for SB147, sponsored by Sen. Scott Sandall, R-Tremonton, is to provide commercial egg producers with time before a ballot referendum mandating stricter rules could get filed in Utah as has happened in other states, he said.
