ECONOMY NEWS
- ➤ A new poll of 609 Utah registered voters found that one-third had considered leaving because housing costs are too high, with 58% of those under 30 most likely to move. Although 56% said they were staying, state leaders stress the need to lower prices to keep young and new residents in the state. Deseret News
ENVIRONMENT NEWS
- ➤ Governor Spencer Cox signed HB81 to ban added fluoride in public drinking water systems, making Utah the first state to do so.

GOVERNMENT NEWS
- ➤ Utah Gov Spencer Cox let a law banning most flags in classrooms and on government property become law after his 20-day review, saying it does not fix political neutrality in schools.

HEALTH NEWS
- ➤ Governor Cox signed H.B. 81 into law on Thursday that bans adding fluoride to public drinking water, making Utah the first state to take this action. The law will go into effect on May 7—residents who want fluoride for personal use can obtain it by prescription. KUTV
