At least 830 people have been forcibly sterilized at state facilities in Utah. Gasoline would be cheaper and electric vehicle charging more expensive if a bill were passed in the Utah Legislature. And the Mayor of Salt Lake City promises police won’t crack down on homeless people during NBA All-Star Game.
At 9:00 a.m. Friday, Salt Lake Tribune reporters Emily Anderson Stern, Tim Fitzpatrick, and Blake Apgar, along with news columnist Robert Gehrke, join Utah Public Radio’s Tom Williams for a briefing on the week’s top stories speak.
