Joint Resolution Supporting State Jurisdiction Under the Principle of Federalism

SJR 6 is a Utah legislative resolution reaffirming state sovereignty under the 10th Amendment, which reserves powers not delegated to the federal government. It specifically references the Supreme Court's Loper Bright decision (which overturned the Chevron doctrine) as a key moment for federalism. The resolution urges Utah state agencies to review federal regulations through this lens and calls on the federal government to respect state authority. It does not change laws or allocate funds but formally expresses Utah's position on federal-state power balance. The resolution directly affects Utah's state agencies and is addressed to federal lawmakers and Utah's congressional delegation.
