Utah's legislature passes bill to ban fluoride in public water, awaiting governor's approval.
Utah is on the verge of becoming the first state to fully ban fluoride in public water systems, with a bill passed by the state legislature awaiting Governor Spencer Cox's approval.
The bill strips cities and communities of their ability to decide on adding fluoride, which is known for preventing tooth decay.
Supporters argue it promotes informed consent and individual choice, while critics claim it could negatively affect low-income residents who rely on fluoridated water for dental care.
The bill's passage would make Utah, which currently ranks 44th in the nation for fluoridated water access, the first state to implement such a ban.
