School is out - or almost out - for Utah children, with approximately 81 days until school starts again. The question that seems to be on every kid's mind is "What do I do all summer?!"If you're like me, I almost always get to about day 60 and wonder where summer has gone and why there are back-to-school sales already.

Dear Sen. John Curtis:You recently asked for input on four places you described as spots "where American principles aren't just spoken, but also felt." Those places, you said, are the Holocaust Museum, The National Museum of African American History and Culture, Arlington National Cemetery, and Ensign Peak in Utah. This open letter to you, in advance of your maiden speech on the Senate floor, is about one of those places: the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington.

As an executive with Tanner Clinic — a physician-owned organization healthcare company that’s been serving Utah families for decades — I’ve seen firsthand how healthcare has changed in recent years.
