Total value added produced in the state in millions of chained 2017 dollars. Annual estimates; the downloaded BEA snapshot is retained with a source hash. Revisions can change historical values and ranks. Annual observations use December 31; monthly observations use the first of the month. Lines connect consecutive readings and do not supply values between them. Missing observations break the lines.
The timeline combines the corresponding national fact’s reviewed event catalog, labeled National context, with individually reviewed state milestones. State events use primary sources and distinguish signing, effective and filing dates. Each milestone keeps its source-check date, geographical limits and evidence limits. This curated selection is not a complete history.
Date ranges affect events and actions. Action type, status and official-name search affect government records only. Events remain separate from action counts. An event after the latest observation extends context without creating a new reading.

FactVote reviewed summary
Creates a proposed state-sponsored temporary visa program for economic activity, including eligible spouses and minor children, with federal and state approval requirements.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Why this record is included
Foreign-born residents include naturalized citizens and lawfully and unlawfully present noncitizens. A provision about a particular immigration status concerns only a subset of that population; it does not change a person’s birthplace. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the fact’s measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.
Retained Utah evidence context: Residents who are foreign-born. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.

Establishing a Higher Bar for Data Center Development in Utah
May 29, 2026 · Issued
Gov. Spencer Cox · Issued
FactVote reviewed summary
Directs agencies to follow a data-center framework that includes opportunities to expand energy generation and transmission consistent with its water, air and ratepayer principles. This is a planning direction, not measured output.
Executive order issued. Later amendments and implementation are not inferred.
Why this record is included
Coal share is coal generation divided by Utah in-state electric-industry net generation from EIA Table 5. Coal plants and other utility-scale generating resources concern this mix; small-scale rooftop solar is outside this denominator; procurement targets and authorizations are distinct from an operating plant or measured output. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the fact’s measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.
Retained Utah evidence context: Coal share of in-state electricity generation. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.
Ensure opportunities to expand energy generation and transmission capacity are consistent with the other principles of this Framework; vii. Lead on pro-human AI development in Utah; and viii. Provide transparent, meaningful and thorough opportunities for public comment. 5. Agency Responsibilities. Agencies shall, in matters related to data centers: a. Adhere to this Framework in agency efforts; b. Regularly review this Framework; c. Undertake extensive public outreach and engagement to further refine this Framework; d. Coordinate and communicate frequently across agencies and other governmental entities, including the Utah Inland Port Authority (UIPA), Military Installation Development Authority (MIDA), and local governments, to ensure consistent implementation of the Framework; and e. Work in partnership with the Legislature on recently approved interim study items in the Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment; Public Utilities, Energy and Technology; and Economic Development and Workforce Services interim committees, including policy recommendations, legislation, and best practices. THIS ORDER is effective immediately and shall remain in effect until otherwise modified, amended, rescinded, or superseded. IN WITNESS, WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused to be affixed the Great Seal of the State of Utah. Done on this, the 29th day of May, 2026. Spencer J. Cox Governor ATTEST: Deidre M.

Gov. Spencer Cox · Signed
FactVote reviewed summary
Spencer Cox signed HB 507. Bars creation of new housing and transit reinvestment zones after January 1, 2028, and gives specified zone provisions retrospective operation to May 4, 2022. The rental-housing connection concerns these zones, which can finance income-restricted housing.
Governor Signed. The connection uses the official active enrolled-version highlights; implementation and current enforceability are not inferred.
Why this record is included
Gross rent includes contract rent and tenant-paid utilities. Rental protections, assistance, and housing supply concern components of rental-market conditions; they do not set Utah’s median rent. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the fact’s measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.

Records come from published fact relationships or reviewed topic records with official supporting evidence and verified Utah officeholder attribution. Historical executive officials require evidence tied to the action date and are excluded from incumbent proposals. Inclusion follows an explicit topic review, a related state fact, or the action’s title and supporting evidence. Explicit topic reviews take priority; repeated actions use the most recent explicit review for this topic. Duplicate actions attached to several facts appear once. This topic match is not a new finding that an action caused a result, and the reviewed collection is selective. Collection reviewed Sep 6, 2026.
What candidates are saying
Explore statements about GDP, economic growth and production from FactVote’s Utah candidate profiles. Compare candidates within each recorded race, with each person’s matching statements kept together. These are candidate and campaign statements, not verified outcomes.
0 statements from 0 candidates
No retained statements match these filters. This does not mean a candidate has never discussed the issue.
How statements are selected
This section matches specific GDP, economic growth and production terms in retained, attributed source text from published Utah candidate profiles. A profile heading or biography alone does not qualify. The Florida geography is fixed; saved state preferences cannot change these results. A mention can concern a community or group rather than Florida’s statewide measure.
Matching is automatic and does not establish a candidate’s stance, the accuracy of a claim, or an effect on the measured result. Results are grouped by recorded race, then by candidate name. Within each candidate, the matching issue mentions appear first. Only candidates with matching retained statements are shown; this is not a complete race roster. Repeated identical text for the same candidate is shown once. Coverage follows the existing state profiles and is not a complete record of all candidates or everything they have said. Review dates are not statement dates.

FactVote reviewed summary
Bars creation of new housing and transit reinvestment zones after January 1, 2028, and gives specified zone provisions retrospective operation to May 4, 2022. The rental-housing connection concerns these zones, which can finance income-restricted housing.
Governor Signed. The session has adjourned. This is the recorded disposition, not a determination of current enforceability.
Why this record is included
Gross rent includes contract rent and tenant-paid utilities. Rental protections, assistance, and housing supply concern components of rental-market conditions; they do not set Utah’s median rent. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the fact’s measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.
Retained Utah evidence context: Median gross rent. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.

Why this record is included
Foreign-born residents include naturalized citizens and lawfully and unlawfully present noncitizens. A provision about a particular immigration status concerns only a subset of that population; it does not change a person’s birthplace. This relationship does not establish causation. Actions after the fact’s measurement period cannot explain its earlier value.
Retained Utah evidence context: Residents who are foreign-born. This record’s connection to the topic does not establish an effect on the measured result.

Only current Utah officeholders retained in the reviewed collection qualify. Bills require a recorded primary sponsorship; cosponsors and signing officials are excluded from sponsorship counts. An official introducer recorded as acting by request is labeled “Introduced by request”; that procedural role does not establish personal policy endorsement. Governor and agency records qualify when recorded as proposed. A separately verified governor transmittal can also establish an original proposal whose latest status reflects its later outcome. Signing an enacted law alone does not establish a proposal. A record appearing under several facts is counted once per officeholder. A bill with multiple primary sponsors appears under each recorded sponsor.
Enacted bills, adopted resolutions and unsuccessful measures remain visible as proposal history. Passing one chamber is not enactment. These counts do not measure effectiveness or prove that an action changed a Utah statistic. Collection reviewed Sep 6, 2026.
Sources & methods
Every section retains its primary sources, units, reporting periods and comparison limits. Maps, graphs and tables use the same observation and cohort. All 50 states are listed; D.C. and territories are excluded. Missing and suppressed values remain unavailable and never become zero.
#1 is the highest measured value. Equal source values share a rank and leave gaps (1, 2, 2, 4). Ranks use source precision and are descriptive, not a score of the state. Survey uncertainty and reporting coverage can limit comparisons. Published U.S. benchmarks are used where available; a state average is not substituted.
Utah snapshots and fiscal sources keep their own dates and accounting scope. National events and federal distribution explainers describe national context. Actions and statements are filtered to Utah, retain their reviewed evidence, and do not establish that a policy caused a measured change.
