DescriptionGov. Spencer Cox now has three weeks to decide if he’ll approve or veto the new state flag bill.

The bill to change Utah’s state flag squeaked by on the House floor Thursday morning on a razor-thin 40-35 vote, thus ending debate on the surprising controversy that engulfed the Legislature since the start of the 2023 session.
