Perhaps today we can take a step in undoing this.

This was an attempt at the legislature

This was an attempt at the county council level, but it shows support of the Mayor

"Members of
the Republican majority Salt Lake County Council voted 5-4 Tuesday to
signal their opposition to the legislation amid concerns from several
council members about its penalties for noncompliant communities and the
ramifications for local decision-making."
What the article didn't say was which members of the county council voted with the mayor.
Clearly if the county council is 5 v 4 Republican, at least one GOP member voted with the mayor.
That would be in the incumbent for Salt Lake County Council District 2.
The good news I am running for Salt Lake County Council District 2 and the incumbent is not.
The Mayor is not a dictator, or should not be. She didn't consult with the council on this decision. She didn't on her stay home order. We need a council that can stand up to the county mayor when she is wrong.
Vote for Fred C. Cox for Salt Lake County Council District 2
