Utah's going nuclear, AI moratorium fears, and 'dumb' flag laws
About this episode
Utah is considering plans for a new uranium processing facility to fuel the governor's plans to build new nuclear energy. ABC4's Jordan Tracy sat down with the Executive Director of the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Joel Ferry to learn what it means for Utah and neighbors living around Camp Williams. Artificial intelligence regulations seem to be the latest snag for President Trump's big beautiful bill. Lawmakers in both Congress and the Utah state legislature are voicing their disapproval of a provision in the bill that would stop states from regulating artificial intelligence for the next 10 years. The author of an open letter to Utah's senators, Doug Fiefia joins host Lindsay Aerts to discuss why he believes Washington needs to back off its AI moratorium. Governor Cox called both Salt Lake City's move to get around Utah's Pride flag ban and the law that created it "dumb." Panelists Sarah Reale and Erin Rider weigh in.
