I hope you’ll join us at the 2026 Weber County Lincoln Day Luncheon on March 28. I’m looking forward to hearing from this year’s keynote, Sam Adolphsen. As a key advisor in the Trump administration, he’s regularly in the Oval Office, working to shape national policy alongside President Trump and Vice President Vance. It’s a unique chance to hear from someone with that kind of insight. It will be a great opportunity to spend time with friends, meet others who care about conservative issues, and support the Weber County GOP. Tickets and tables are available at webergop.org.

Tuesday is GOP Caucus Night in Utah — one of the best ways to get involved in your local community and politics. Neighborhood meetings will be held across the state, where neighbors will meet, discuss issues, and elect delegates and precinct leaders who help shape the future of our party and our elections. If you’re a registered Republican, I strongly urge you to participate. It’s the best way to be heard and amplify your voice in politics. Register and find your location here. 📅 Tuesday, March 17 Register and find your caucus location here: precinctportal.org

This is not Utah. I’m thinking about all of the work we @utahhousereps have done to protect minors, improve public safety, and protect religious liberty in Utah. I’m appalled that we now have an entire Utah congressional district that will represent the ideology of a far left sliver of the voters of our great state.

Great meeting today with USDA Deputy Secretary Stephen Vaden to talk about the future of agriculture and forest service lands in Utah. The USDA/Forest Service is working to move more positions and leadership out of Washington, D.C., and into a handful of states across the country, and Utah will receive a strong share of those roles. Having managers and decision-makers located here in Utah, rather than in D.C., is a big win for our state and a top priority for me. I appreciate Deputy Secretary Vaden making the trip to Utah and working with us — alongside Secretary Brooke Rollins and the Trump administration — to ensure Utah is part of this effort. More announcements are expected in the coming months, and I look forward to continuing this work to support Utah's agriculture sector and forest service lands. 🌾🌲

Strong families are the backbone of our state. That's why, over the past 45 days, we focused on lowering costs, strengthening families, and protecting our kids. I'm proud of the work we did this session to build an even stronger future for Utah. 💪🏼

If we want lower gas prices, we have to increase supply. That’s why we’re moving forward with a plan to bring millions of additional gallons of fuel into the market every day and cut the gas tax by 15%. In the next few years, this package has the ability to lower prices by 20¢ or more per gallon at the pump. This is a win for Utah, Idaho, industry, our region, and mostly, Utah families. ⛽️

Thank you, President Trump! Utah has taken bold, meaningful steps to protect and preserve the Great Salt Lake — from major policy reforms to significant funding commitments. We’re grateful to have the federal government as a partner in this effort. This is a regional challenge that requires strong collaboration, innovative solutions, and coordinated action. We’re committed to making sure the lake is strong today and for generations to come.

Utah ranks last in the nation for judicial transparency. Currently, the Judiciary doesn’t require judges to disclose financial ties, investments, or potential conflicts of interest. That’s why we’re advancing HB 540 to make our courts more open, accessible, and accountable. We appreciate the judiciary’s willingness to engage on this issue and work with us to improve transparency for the people of Utah. The bill: 📌 Establishes judicial financial disclosure rules similar to those required of elected officials 📌 Creates one searchable online hub for public court records (with free monthly searches) 📌 Adds a two-year cooling-off period before a former judge can make money suing the state Ironically, the Utah State Bar opposes these common-sense reforms to make the courts more transparent and accessible to the people of Utah. 🤔 Transparency builds trust. Accountability strengthens institutions. And the people of Utah deserve a judicial system that works for them. deseret.com/politics/2026/…

We show ID to cash a check, rent a car, check into a hotel, board a flight, or buy a drink — it’s a normal part of everyday life. Showing ID to vote is no different. It’s common sense, and 83% of Americans agree. Voting is one of the most important things we do as Americans. We should do everything we can to ensure free and fair elections remain a keystone of our republic. 🇺🇸

Utah’s lands, wildlife, conservation, and outdoor heritage mean a great deal to me, and I’m honored to receive the Private Lands Stewardship Award from the Mule Deer Foundation. Protecting and improving habitat isn’t just a priority — it’s a responsibility. Through hands-on conservation work and strong partnerships with landowners and sportsmen, we’ve worked to strengthen mule deer habitat and preserve these resources for future generations. I’m grateful for this recognition and for the many people who work every day to protect Utah’s wildlife and outdoor legacy.

Does Utah's court system need a transparency overhaul? State lawmakers think so ksl.com/article/514470… #utpol @KSL5TV @KSLcom

I have six kids, and I’m proud of all of them and the things they’re accomplishing. This moment was especially special. I’m so proud of the work Laney is putting into rodeo. It takes time, discipline, and a lot of perseverance. It’s important for our kids to do hard things, to be outside, to commit to something that requires responsibility and resilience. These kinds of activities shape character in ways nothing else can. #OneGoodHeadlineForASchultz😂

Utah families balance their budgets. Government should too. That means asking hard questions and cutting what doesn’t work, while protecting core services that do. We’re being responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars by trimming waste, eliminating duplication, and reinvesting in programs that deliver real results – or returning savings to Utah families. It’s about trust, accountability, and keeping government focused on what truly matters.

In Utah, hard work pays off. Responsible fiscal policy, low taxes, and good jobs keep the American Dream alive and thriving in the Beehive State. This session, we’re carrying that tradition forward with investments that help Utah families and keep our state strong.

Low taxes. Strong families. Safe communities. Real opportunity. Utah is the best state in the nation, and we’re going to keep it that way. That's why this session, we're focused on lowering the cost of living for Utah families, shrinking government, and investing in infrastructure that lasts. Conservative principles built Utah, and they’ll keep Utah strong for generations to come.

Strong families are the backbone of Utah. That’s why this session, the @utahhousereps is focused on policies that strengthen families, protect children, and make it more affordable for families to continue calling our state home.

Today, state leaders, university and technical college presidents, the Utah Board of Higher Education, and the Commissioner of Higher Education came together to sign a resolution reaffirming our commitment to keeping college affordable, accessible, and focused on outcomes that help students succeed in school, in careers, and in life. Utah is proving that when policymakers and higher education leaders work together, we strengthen our institutions, improve our state, and most importantly, better serve our students. deseret.com/utah/2026/01/2…

Yesterday, we kicked off the 2026 Legislative Session. This session, we’re focusing on decisions that strengthen Utah not just for today, but for our kids, grandkids, and future generations. Read my full remarks here: house.utleg.gov/speaker-mike-s…

Yesterday, we celebrated the completion of the North Capitol Building — a space that belongs to all Utahns and reflects the pride we have in our great state. With expanded parking, a new Museum of Utah coming soon, and more room for the public to gather, this building fulfills the Utah State Capitol master plan more than a century after the original Capitol was completed. But what matters most to me is who this building is for: our kids and future generations. It sends a clear message that government isn’t distant or intimidating – it’s something they’re invited into and a part of. This is the result of leaders thinking ahead and investing in a place that will inspire learning, connection, and civic pride for years to come.

The Utah House Majority Caucus is leading with common-sense, conservative solutions. We are putting families first by working to lower residential property taxes, reduce taxes, invest in our children, lower gas prices, and reduce barriers, so it's easier to raise a family.
