Gov. Gary Herbert may have writer’s cramp. He signed 136 bills into law on Tuesday — including one to enable more toll roads statewide, and one to reduce the number of days that residents may set off fireworks.
Others will provide contraceptives for low-income parents, change how the state provides information discouraging abortion to women considering the procedure and erases controversial signs saying restaurants are not licensed as bars.
Herbert has now signed into law 325 bills passed by the Legislature in its general session this year. He is still considering whether to sign about another 200.
