FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

August 23, 2022

SALT LAKE CITY – Better Boundaries Executive Director Katie Wright issued the following statement regarding the Third District Court Decision to Deny the Motion to Stay:­­

“The people of Utah will have their day in court. We are energized by today’s decision in the Third District Court denying the State Legislatures motion to stay and delay justice. Legal maneuvering by the legislature remained unsuccessful and the voice of Utahns will be heard in court tomorrow.

“We remain committed to the majority of Utah voters who demanded gerrymandering reform in 2018 and will continue to fight for transparency and accountability from our elected officials. We look forward to the day when Utah voters can finally pick their own politicians, not the other way around.”
