Beginning July 1, unions serving Utah teachers, firefighters, police officers, transit workers and other public employees will be banned from negotiating on their behalf for better wages and working conditions.

In other words, Utah is looking forward to a shortage of teachers, firefighters, and police officers.

Police unions, understandable. Not so much the other two.
