2025 Legislative Recap
As the 2025 Utah Legislative Session comes to a close, we at HEAL Utah are reflecting on the policies that will shape our state’s environment and the health of its people. This session brought debates on air quality, energy policy, the handling of toxic and radioactive waste and major discussions around nuclear energy. HEAL Utah has a long history of critically evaluating the impacts of nuclear energy on our state, and this year’s legislative session saw significant proposals that could impact Utah’s energy future. While we saw some notable victories, there is still much work to be done. Here’s a look at what passed, what didn’t and what comes next.
CLOSED: STOP THE MIDA AND BEEHIVE DEVELOPMENT POWER GRABS! – OPPOSE S.B. 316 AND S.B. 337
HEAL Utah is deeply concerned that S.B. 316 and 337 undermine environmental oversight at a time when it is more needed than ever. Fill out our action alert today!
CLOSED: URGENT: OPPOSE H.B. 355 TO PRESERVE LOCAL CONTROL OVER MINING EXPANSION!
H.B. 355 limits local governments from preventing the expansion of certain mining operations. It also shifts the burden of proof to the challenger and raises the standard of proof to “clear and convincing.” Protect your local government’s ability to stop mine expansions today!
STOP UTAH’S RISKY NUCLEAR GAMBLE – URGENT ACTION NEEDED AGAINST H.B. 249, H.B. 254, AND S.B. 216
HEAL Utah is deeply concerned about a slate of bills designed to expand the use of nuclear energy in the state. Take action today to oppose H.B. 249, H.B. 254, and S.B. 216!
