Legislators instead turned their attention to fighting the Biden administration’s vaccine mandates.
House Speaker Brad Wilson, R-Kaysville, Lt. Gov. Deidre Henderson, and Gov. Spencer Cox at a news conference related to COVID-19 at the State Capitol in Salt Lake City on Friday, Jan. 14, 2022.In September 2021, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox was worried about the rising number of COVID-19 cases from the delta variant.
“The President has regular meetings with the governor and speaker, and they continue to monitor the situation. Though, a formal working group with legislators hasn’t been formed,” Aundrea Peterson, Utah Senate deputy chief of staff, said in a text message. It’s easy to see why the working group proposal was passed aside. Worries about COVID-19 spreading in schools gave way to frustration at the federal government. Just a few days after Cox’s meeting with legislators, President Joe Biden unveiled his plan to require vaccines or testing for businesses with 100 or more employees.
