www.protectutahworkers.com/🚨 BREAKING: UEA and Labor Partners File Referendum to Restore Workers’ Rights
Today, we took action to protect Utah workers! The legislature stripped away public employees' right to negotiate, ignoring thousands of Utahns who opposed their rushed decision.
Collective bargaining means fair wages, safe workplaces, and stronger public services. Utahns deserve a say in this fight. Now, we need YOU!
Sign up to gather signatures and help put this referendum on the ballot! Together, we can restore workers’ rights and hold lawmakers accountable.

Congratulations Kyle. Enjoy retirement.We want to recognize Engineer/Paramedic Kyle Stewart, who recently retired from West Valley City Fire Department.
Kyle was hired in the summer of 2005, after spending time at Ogden City Fire. Kyle attended paramedic school in 2007 at Weber State University. Throughout his career he prided himself on his extensive emergency medical knowledge and was able to help pass this on to the many junior paramedics who rotated through his stations over the years.
Kyle was promoted to Engineer in 2016 and spent the vast majority of his time at Station 75.
Kyle’s extensive experience and real-world knowledge will be missed.
Best of luck in future endeavors, Kyle! ... See MoreSee Less

Governor Spencer Cox signed HB267, stripping firefighters, police officers, and all public employees of their rights to collectively bargain for fair wages, benefits, and working conditions. This bill silences the voices of those who run toward danger to protect Utah’s communities.
🔥 Firefighters deserve a seat at the table. This law undermines our ability to negotiate for safe staffing levels, mental health resources, and competitive pay—all of which directly impact public safety.
We will not be silent. We will continue to fight for the rights and safety of Utah’s bravest and the communities we serve. Stay informed. Stay engaged.
📢 Share this post & tag @GovCox to demand accountability. Let’s stand together for Utah’s first responders!

Why are we against HB 267?
🚨It reduces public and firefighter safety
🚨Compromises training and resources
🚨Exacerbates ongoing recruitment and retention challenges
🚨Erodes fair treatment and due process protections in the workplace
This isn’t just a labor issue, it’s a public safety issue. We call on Gov. Spencer J. Cox to prioritize public safety and firefighter safety- VETO HB 267!

We could not be more disappointed in Representative Jordan Teuscher and Senator Kirk Cullimore’s anti-public safety HB 267 passing the Senate today with a 16-13 vote. This anti-firefighter legislation now moves to the desk of Governor Spencer J. Cox.
Make no mistake: both our City and our Firefighters are less safe because of HB 267. We respectfully ask Governor Cox to prioritize the safety of Utahns, Salt Lakers, and our first responders by vetoing this DISHONEST and damaging legislation.
