Two states… Nevada and Ohio… have embraced occupational licensing reform to make it easier for people to work in their states. In recent years Utah has also taken steps to reform occupational licensing. But where does Utah stand now? Shoshana Weissmann from the R Street Institute breaks down where we are and whether these reforms in Nevada and Ohio are worth replicating in the Beehive State.

Guest hosts: Leah Murray and Taylor Morgan
