PictureThese teachers from Duchesne make a difference in the lives of students. I was glad to listen to their needs and concerns.
 I can’t believe we’re past the halfway point of the 2018 legislative session. It’s been a busy week on the Hill. Here’s a little of what went down the fourth week.
  • HB175-comes to us from Representative Stratton. It has stalled in committee, but he is still working to bring it to the House Floor. This bill creates a regulatory committee that will oversee county, municipal and state administrative rules. I oppose this bill in it’s current form, because we already have this authority in our legislative committees. I do not believe we need to create more bureaucracy to offset work which should be done in our committees.
  • SCR1-The resolution to send Martha Hughes Cannon to Washington has passed the Senate and House. A new statue will be commissioned and sent to the Hall of Statues in the US Capitol Building in 2020. I was proud to vote in favor of this amazing woman and all that she stands for.

PictureTuesday night, I took a few minutes to meet with this scout troop from Wanship. I am grateful for leaders and kids who take an interest in our government.

​HB181-presented by Representative Marc Roberts, this bill allows for zero regulation on foods that are produced and sold from home-based businesses. Although I am in favor of less regulation on home-based businesses, I had to vote against this bill. I didn’t feel it accomplished what the sponsor intended, and it created gray areas. Without this bill, a person can already sell raw produce, baked goods and certain processed foods which are made at home or produced in a garden without any state regulation.

PictureThis awesome kids came all the way from Manila to visit the Capitol. I was happy I got to spend a few minutes with them.
​
  • HB164-Early Childhood Task Force was presented to the Floor by Representative Cutler. It was defeated. This bill created additional bureaucracy to look at ways to improve early childhood development. I believe we have enough oversight when it comes to early education, so I voted nay.

PictureI had the privilege of speaking with this homeschool group about the importance of our constitution.


  • HB195 and 197-The Medical Cannabis Policy were presented by Representative Brad Daw. I voted in favor of both of these bills. This legislation will provide clear guidelines for who can produce and prescribe medical cannabis if the ballot initiative passes in November.
HB258-Womens’ Cancer Screening Notification ammendments presented by Representative LaVar Christensen. This bill will require physicians to notify women who may have dense breast tissue that additional screening may be necessary. I voted in favor, because I think women should be informed and have the right to choose whether or not they want additional screening. It passed the house, just barely.

    PictureMy daughter and her friend, Michael came to visit me this week.
    This week, I had the opportunity to meet with high schoolers from Manila, who made the long trek to the Capitol for a field trip. I was able to meet with a homeschool group from Morgan. We talked about constitutionality and the important role it plays in legislation. My daughter Madi and her friend Michael came to visit Thursday. On Friday, I had the opportunity to meet with teachers and school board members from District 53. All in all, it was a pretty great week. 
    ​ As always, I am thankful for the opportunity to represent you on the Hill. Please contact me at loganwilde@le.utah.gov with any questions or concerns. Thank you for supporting my family and I in this adventure.
