Signature Gathering Amendments

Summary

The bill revises Utah’s initiative and referendum statutes to require petition forms to state that each signer has read the full statement and that the gatherer believes the signer has read the law. It also sets standards for how petition packets are bound, circulated, and posted online, and creates timelines for the lieutenant governor and local clerks to supply materials and publish signature data. The changes were meant to improve transparency, but the measure did not pass.
