Informed consent is critical to a successful democracy,
and as citizens, we must know what our government is doing and how it
makes the policy decisions that affect our lives. The ACLU of Utah works
to keep state and local government agencies open and accountable to the
people they represent.
Governor is Asked to Veto Bill That Would Diminish Transparency in Government. Posted 03/7/11 - The ACLU of Utah sent a letter to Gov. Herbert asking that he veto H.B. 477, " Government Records Amendment," that passed through the legislature rapidly late last week.
