IT'S TIME TO INVEST IN UTAH'S FUTURE

Utah has been cutting taxes for decades. We have passed, on average, $100 million of new tax breaks every year for the last 35 years. This has added up to about $3.5 billion dollars every year that we don't have available to invest in education, infrastructure, clean air, and other critical foundations of Utah's future prosperity and quality of life.

The Invest in Utah's Future Coalition is comprised of Utahns from every part of our state working together to focus public attention on how we can create a better future when we decide--together-- to invest in Utah's future.

If you have any questions regarding the coalition, our tax survey, or anything else regarding this initiative please contact Matthew Weinstein at matthew@utahchildren.org.
