Purchasing power: We have the materials that we need for now, but in the weeks ahead we will need to order more of our awesome stickers, so please consider a donation to help us buy more stickers!
In the news: The Tribune published our letter to the editor, “Support our petition to clean the air and end state sales tax on groceries”! We had originally envisioned this as an open letter signed by a bunch of folks, but it turns out that the Tribunedoesn’t like long sign-on letters, so we narrowed it down to two stalwarts of the campaign: Dennis Mullen of West Jordan and Lisa Rutherford of Ivins.
