Official account of Utah Governor Spencer J. Cox
We’re sending a clear message to the CCP: Utah is not for sale. Religious liberty is not a bargaining chip. And we will not stand by while adversaries try to undermine our democracy. Thank you to Rep. @CandicePierucci, the Utah legislature, and so many others working to protect…
Building Utah’s future starts with protecting what makes it special. Today, the new BUILD Coordinating Council sat down to chart our state’s next chapter of strengthening neighborhoods, protecting our resources, and keeping Utah strong.
Pioneer Day is tomorrow, but the celebration is already underway. From parades to rodeos, Utahns have long honored our founding by coming together. Catch the Days of '47 Rodeo through Saturday and celebrate the spirit that built this state.
Last week, Utah drew a clear line: no adversarial foreign buyers on our soil. Thanks to Rep. Candice Pierucci’s strong legislation, we blocked a land purchase near the Provo Airport by a company tied to the Chinese military. Utahns will always defend our land, our values, and…
Few things capture the spirit of Utah quite like the Days of ’47 Rodeo Cattle Drive. Proud to join our friends on horseback and wagon this morning to honor the grit, tradition, and enduring legacy of the pioneers who helped build this great state.

Southern Utah is strong because people are deeply rooted in their neighborhoods and communities. In La Verkin, Dick and Linda Prince have built a life centered on family, faith, and service while offering orchard fruit and encouragement to all who pass through. Just down the…
Grateful to our local leaders for taking decisive action to keep Utah lands in Utah hands. Utah is home to some of the nation’s most important defense installations and the CCP has no right to own land anywhere near them. This is what standing up for sovereignty looks like.
We just blocked an attempted land purchase by a Chinese state-owned company near Provo Airport. Thanks to strong laws and operational vigilance, Utah is standing up to the CCP and protecting our national security. From family farms to critical infrastructure, Utah land and…
