Welcome to The Senate Site

The Governor releases his proposed budget this Friday.

Here's Max Roth re: The 2010 Question (taxes v. cuts) and the latest UPD Insiders Poll:




Senator Urquhart talks budget and makes a case for no new taxes on StevU.com:

Because Utah balances its budget, the money is real. A dollar really is a dollar. Depending on tax policy, each dollar can either be in the pocket of the person who earned it, or it can be collected and shifted to someone else. Utah already takes too many dollars out of people's pockets. Each additional dollar we take is one less dollar that the worker could have spent on food, shelter, charity, business development, etc. Government simply does not multiply the benefits of a dollar like the owner of a dollar does. Thus, while taking additional dollars out of people's pockets could work to shore up the State's budget issues, it would not be in the long-term best interests of Utah's citizens or economy.
