Q2 Briefing – Protecting Judicial Independence in Utah

Utah’s judicial system has long been a national model for its merit-based selection and nonpartisan retention, ensuring fair courts for all Utahns. However, recent legislative and executive actions threaten to politicize this process. When politicians take steps to undermine the authority of state courts—especially as a way to grab more power for themselves—the costs are borne by real people seeking justice. Disagreement with judicial decisions is a healthy feature of our system; structural retaliation against the courts is not.

Utah Donor Collaborative is committed to the rule of law and the constitutional framework that governs our state. That framework depends on a co-equal judiciary—one that is independent, impartial, and insulated from political retaliation. We invite you to join us for an exclusive webinar where we will discuss these recent challenges to Utah’s courts and how we can work together to preserve a fair, independent judiciary. Register now to learn from our expert partners about the frontline work to protect the rule of law and checks and balances in our state.

Additional details and speaker information will follow soon.
