• On September 11, 2012, by BentonMiller - Here's a webpage where over 2,000 Utahns have voiced their opposition to this bill and it's companion in the Senate: "Change.org Petition to oppose HR3452 and S1883":http://www.change.org/petitions/help-stop-skilink-oppose-h-r-3452-and-s-1883 Show me a similar petition of concerned Utahns pushing for this bill. There isn't one. Utah doesn't want this. A small group of wealthy business owners is looking to make a fast buck by getting a great deal on a priceless piece of land and our representatives are enabling them. This is what corruption and crony capitalism looks like.
