Huntsman’s Bill Signing Frenzy

According to the Trib, Gov. Jon Huntsman signed 97 new bills into law yesterday, after having signed 103 of them last Friday. It makes my head spin just trying to keep up with them.

It looks like he hasn’t touched the Video Games Bill yet, so there’s still time to call. That information is below.

Among the ones he did sign are HB 17 (Expedited Partner Therapy Treatment), HB 21 (Amendments to the Driver License Act), HB 22 (Harboring a Runaway), HB 51 (Exemption for Alcoholic Beverage Manufacturing License), HB 90 (Abortion Law Amendments), HB 114 (Abortion Litigation Trust Account Amendments), HB 313 (Social Host Liability Act), and SB 11 (Incest Amendments).

I’ve only barely touched on the new laws, and I’m sure I’ve skipped at least a few that are important. But, as citizens of this state, it’s rather important to be informed on the new laws, right? Well, besides reading this blog, you can also keep an eye on what the Gov signs by reading the Latest News and Announcements from the Governor’s web site. Feel free to leave your thoughts about these bills, or others that are of concern for you. I always love to hear from my readers!

    So I left my message… it was rather lenghty, hope it wasn’t cut short… thanks for keeping me posted on this. I have chatted with the other owners and though I’m sad to say some just shrugged it off, I hope that this bill gets thrown out. I’m confident that even if I wasn’t in the store my employees would handle a surprise visit how I expect they would.

    Side note, “Wild Things” gave me goosebumps. Never saw the trailer til now.
