Utah House unanimously approves pay for in‑session employees, 72‑0
The Utah House unanimously approved SJR 1 on Jan. 20, 2022, a joint resolution authorizing pay for in‑session employees. Representative Schultz presented the resolution on the floor and praised the session staff as "some of the most important" members of the legislative branch who make the work of the chamber possible.

"Without them, none of the work that we do up here would be done or possible," Schultz said, thanking staff for their work before the House voted. The resolution passed 72–0 and will be signed by the Speaker and returned to the Senate for the President's signature.

The vote followed floor business on a range of bills and committee assignments; no amendments or extended debate were recorded on SJR 1.
