Utah's governor urges phone bans in schools and housing reforms to tackle youth mental health and homelessness.
In his 2026 State of the State address, Utah Governor Spencer Cox called for building "moral infrastructure" to combat youth mental health issues, low reading levels, housing shortages, and addiction, criticizing social media's influence and urging a full-day phone ban in schools.
He advocated for zoning reforms and streamlined permitting to expand housing, pledging to make homelessness the worst experience possible while ensuring strong support services.
Cox also warned of national political polarization and emphasized accountability and compassion in addressing homelessness.
Democrats responded with calls for stronger family support, healthcare access, environmental protections, and gun safety, highlighting divisions over policy priorities.
