The Reagan Caucus wants to reclaim the Republican Party
Brigham Tomco writes: “'There is a sizable part of the Republican Party ... that wants something different from the direction the party has been going in for the last decade,' Utah Reagan Caucus director Justin Stapley told the Deseret News.
"In 1980 and 1984, Reagan was able to capitalize on national discontent to win in huge landslide elections, Stapley said, because of his 'happy warrior' attitude, promises of trustworthy spending and a projection of American confidence on the world stage.
"'And I think on each of those aspects you see the Republican Party experiencing a serious departure from those things,' Stapley said."

Lisa Riley Roche writes: "Salt Lake City has already been named the International Olympic Committee’s preferred host for the 2034 Winter Games, with a final vote expected to be held in Paris on July 24, celebrated in Utah as Pioneer Day.
"Cox, who would sign the host agreement with the IOC on behalf of the state, said bringing another Olympics to Utah after first hosting in 2002 could serve as a catalyst for determining where best to invest tax dollars at all levels of government.
"'We obviously want to maintain our quality of life while focusing on economic growth and prosperity. I think that goes without saying,' the governor said, adding at the end of the meeting, 'We have this just extra motivation that we need to stay relevant and get this right.'"
