NEW: Sen. Daniel Thatcher, the Forward Party’s lone member in the Utah legislature, announces he’ll resign before the next session. Typically, party delegates pick a replacement to serve the remainder of a term. But the party says it’s working on something different with details soon. #utpol #Utah

Credit where credit is due. Moore was a supporter of redistricting reform in Utah before he was elected to Congress. Thanks for speaking out, Representative, against the Texas gerrymander power grab. We need to acknowledge and openly support Republicans who stand up to their tyrannical party leader.
U.S. Rep. Blake Moore says Texas Republicans' plan to redistrict for more GOP congressional seats is a "step too far." He is the highest-ranking House Republican to denounce the plan.

This shocks the conscience. The horrors happening *right now* at American detention facilities will take some time to be fully understood.
This is what happens when we put people in charge who lack basic decency. This cannot be who we are.

This is infuriating. A man is dead today because apparently a bad guy with a gun charged into a crowd and a good guy with a gun tried to stop him.

For those who are skeptical that the Forward Party can "take on" the major parties.
I'm sensing a certain amount of skepticism here!
The goal right now isn't to overtake the Republican Party. It's to restore competition in districts that gerrymandering and natural separation have made untenable for one party or the other

For those who are skeptical that the Forward Party can "take on" the major parties.
My only qualm with @schotthappens.com's coverage here is that despite being small parties by voter registration, Forward and UUP combined are already the *largest* 3rd party in Utah when measured either by the number of candidates run last year or the number of votes earned.
As the newest political party, the Utah Forward is the smallest of the state's 8 parties, with 226 people registered.
United Utah is the third-smallest, with 2,221 members.
If the merger goes through, the new party will leapfrog the Green Party to become the sixth largest in Utah.
