Utah GOP Chair race, new SLC flags
About this episode
The Utah GOP will pick its next chairman at their state convention on May 17. Current chair and candidate running for reelection Rob Axson, and convention chair Thomas Wright join host Lindsay Aerts to break down what's at stake. Phil Lyman, who's challenging Axson, declined to join. The pair also breaks down a proposal to strip party membership from candidates who gather signatures. Plus, a sidestep of the Utah flag law from Salt Lake City has state leaders criticizing the move. Salt Lake adopted Pride, transgender, and Juneteenth flags as official city flags so they could be flown anywhere. The sponsor of the new law, state senator Dan McCay joins with his criticism of the decision.
