NEW: Utah Republicans passed a law making it harder for voters to remove their signatures from the GOP's petition to legalize partisan gerrymandering — an initiative it's been hellbent on after courts struck down its previous map for violating a gerrymandering ban.
The law takes effect immediately.
Memories …
Utah lawmakers introduced a late-night change to an election bill apparently geared toward slowing the removal of signatures from a ballot initiative that would repeal Proposition 4.
The Utah Legislature has adjourned following a 45-day session dealing with taxes, housing, courts, immigration and a host of other issues.
Nuggets from my interview last night w/ Gov. Cox:
💧 Water restrictions possible this summer
🗳 Potential special session for a constitutional amendment on "right to alter and reform government" after redistricting lawsuit
🖋 So far, nothing he sees is an automatic veto

Today’s action item
@slindivisible.bsky.social On February 28, 2026, Trump first calls the Iran War a "major combat operation."
Where have I heard those words before? They sound so familar.
Vladimir Putin first used the term "special military operation" to describe the invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022.
Tonight!
You’re at the top of the list again, Utah. Keep calling!
At a committee hearing this afternoon, Burton acknowledged his "300 dead people voted" statement is not true, and the Senate ultimately killed his bill that would've made it harder to vote by mail or dropbox.
Burton said he offered the correction because The Tribune questioned him on it.
A controversial Utah bill that would restrict some of Salt Lake City's traffic-calming efforts stalled in a House committee Monday.
ACTION over ANXIETY Salt Lake Indivisible TODAY'S ACTION 3/3 Today please call both of your Senators and your House Member and tell them to support the War Powers Resolution. Remind them that an act of congress is required to engage in acts of war. It is important to remember that several months ago when we bombed Iran this president said we took out all nuclear capabilitites. It is also rich to recall that in 2018 he destroyed the JCPOA Agreement, which helped limit Iran's nuclear capabilities. Download 5 calls and see how easy they make it to call all of your reps.
We have to continue calling and make them hear us

this is a great brief and it appropriately ends with a killshot: the simple observation that if trump's meaning held, the birthright clause would not have overturned dred scott, the one thing it was absolutely meant to do.
