There’s a chance the controversial constitutional Amendment D on Utah’s Nov. 5 ballot — voided last week by a district court judge — may come back from the dead. Over the weekend, the Utah Supreme Court agreed to hear the Utah Legislature’s appeal.

Trump talked about his record on foreign policy and his admiration for Utah values in a quick fundraising stop.

The Utah Supreme Court has agreed to decide if Amendment D will go on the November ballot. On Saturday, the state’s top court agreed to take up the Legislature’s appeal of a lower court judge’s ruling that voided the constitutional amendment.

A judge in Utah has ruled that a proposal to amend the state constitution to let state lawmakers rewrite voter-approved ballot measures will not be decided in the November election.

The Utah Legislature is asking the Utah Supreme Court to review and reverse the decision keeping Amendment D, the proposal to amend the Utah Constitution related to citizen-led ballot initiatives, off the ballot.

The Utah Legislature on Friday asked the Utah Supreme Court for an emergency order putting constitutional Amendment D — which would guarantee the Legislature the right to repeal citizen ballot initiatives — reviving the proposal that a judge ruled Thursday was “void” due to deceptive ballot language.

In a remarkable ruling issued Thursday morning — the second time in less than three months the courts have rebuked the Utah Legislature — a judge declared a controversial constitutional amendment question on the Nov.

In 2016, when Donald Trump first ran for president, Utah was known as Trump’s most resistant red state. When Trump returns to Utah for a fundraiser Saturday, event organizers want that to be a distant memory.

A Utah judge promises to rule by Thursday on a proposed constitutional amendment that would empower the Republican-dominated state Legislature to override citizen initiatives.

In a ruling released Thursday, a Utah judge voided a state constitutional amendment that would have enabled lawmakers to repeal all voter-led initiatives. Why it matters: The amendment, if passed, would have allowed Utah's GOP-controlled legislature to ignore anti-gerrymandering reforms voters passed in 2018 and all future voter initiatives.

The decision came on Thursday, in response to a lawsuit filed by League of Women Voters of Utah and Mormon Women for Ethical Government that alleged the ballot language of a constitutional amendment was “deceptive.” Utah Senate President Stuart Adams and House Speaker Mike Schultz, who wrote the language, said the language was “straightforward.”
