It's not legal to recall senators from office, how are you going to recall Senator Mitt Romney?

It is not legal in Utah to recall senators from office, YET. Our mission is to change Utah law making it possible for voters to recall senators from office before senators complete their 6-year term.

To do this, there are certain steps we must take to make it legal.

First, we must collect 115,869 signatures of Utah voters on a statewide initiative. Once we collect the required signatures, we can place the proposition on the next Utah ballot.

Once on the ballot, the people of Utah may vote whether they would like to change the Utah Constitution and make it legal to recall a senator from office.

Once it passes, it will be legal to recall senators from office.



Where are you now with the statewide initative?

We are currently working with the Utah Lieutenant Governor's Office and carefully following all the steps and requirements necessary to comply with this citizen's initiative. We do not have a precise date as to when we can begin to gather signatures. By signing up on our website, you will be able to receive an update when we reach this point in the process.
