Last week, the Tribune published a front-page article stating that our legislative leaders were putting Planned Parenthood and abortion rights in their crosshairs yet again.

Rather than address issues critical to Utah and its citizens, like health care for the underemployed, improved air quality for us all, effective mass transit or updating building codes, they want to beat a dead horse.

Really? Where's the courage to legislate for the people in a truly useful manner?
