UNITE FOR TERM LIMITS (U4TL) COMMENCES GATHERING SIGNATURES FOR CITIZEN INITIATIVE
SALT LAKE CITY -- UT On September 9, 2019, the elections branch of the Utah Lieutenant Governor’s Office announced that the U4TL can begin gathering signatures for the term limit citizen initiative. Without the elections branch's approval, U4TL would be unable to gather signatures.
U4TL is proposing a consecutive twelve-year term limit for state legislators and a consecutive eight-year term limit for executive elected officials.
According to the law, U4TL needs more than 115,000 valid signatures from registered voters across the state.
"We are aiming to collect more than that because of possible duplicate signatures, ineligible signers, incomplete entries, retractions, and the like. But we can't just get signatures from the populous counties. We need a strong representation of voters from at least 26 of the state's 29 senate districts," David Westerby, a sponsor of the citizen initiative Unite for Term Limits explained.
For more information about the proposed Term Limits Act and information about how to volunteer to collect signatures or donate, go to unite4termlimits.org.

SiJohn ranks among the top-10 “Most Influential” and respected business leaders in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Bozzi Media, the magazine’s publisher, states that the list represents “our region’s most influential professionals–in time, presence and money–who have been shaping, and continue to shape, our community in positive ways.” Together, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, Spokane, Washington, and their respective counties comprise a Combined Statistical Area (CSA) that ranks as the 71st largest in the United States. Award recipients will be feted at the Power 50 Awards on September 18th, 2019 at 5:00 PM with the ceremony beginning at 6:30 PM. Tickets are available online at https://bozzitickets.com/e/power-50/tickets and the event will take place at the Hangar Event Center at Felts Field located at 6095 E. Rutter Ave. Spokane, WA 99212. For more information visit www.spokanecda.com.
“I am humbled to receive the Power 50 Award,” begins SiJohn. “When I am honored, so is the Coeur d’Alene Tribe, and that pleases me more than anything. It’s an acknowledgement that our efforts, in the local economy and community have not gone unnoticed. There are more great things to come,” the affable CEO concludes.
A long-time leader within Coeur d’Alene Tribal Government, Francis SiJohn is in his third year as CEO of the Coeur d’Alene Casino Resort Hotel. He has already overseen multiple positive initiatives, including a major 68,000 square-foot renovation to the casino, which was completed in March 2019. SiJohn and his team envisioned and executed the new unifying interior design, complete with new high-limit gaming and other amenities, plus the creation of a state-of-the-art event center. The event center boasts a new world-class sound and lighting system that delivers perhaps the finest concert experience for casino patrons in the Pacific Northwest!
While the Coeur d’Alene Casino Resort Hotel enjoys the visionary leadership of one of the Pacific Northwest’s most influential CEO’s, SiJohn’s influence reaches far beyond the properties walls.
