In a groundbreaking move, Utah's HB 306 proposed offering state vendors the option to be paid in gold or silver, a shift that echoes debates on returning to a gold standard. Despite soaring support—unanimous in the House and only four dissenters in the Senate, Governor Cox vetoed the bill, sparking a political and public uproar. Economic War Room host Kevin Freeman joins Glenn Beck to discuss the national movement toward gold and silver-backed transactions, arguing it offers financial stability against dollar fluctuations. As multiple states consider similar legislation, Freeman urges Utah citizens to push their representatives to override the veto, asserting it could pave the way for transformative economic policy across the nation.
