A statement that everything is much better than it was before-Hasty Generalization. Little to no proven evidence given.

Last night during the 2026 State of the Union address, "Bigger, Better, Richer, and Stronger than ever before." No evidence given, no reference to what is actually going on, according to the data.

How would this senator respond to the bottom letter

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 12:25:37 -0500

It looks like you’ve shared the framework, some articles about home language, and then one sentence from what’s probably your own letter, but I don’t see the full “bottom letter” you’re asking about.
Because I don’t have the complete letter or the specific senator’s name and bill, I can’t realistically predict their exact response, but I can help you think about how someone with a certain voting record or party might react in general to your arguments.
If you tell me which Utah senator you’re writing to and what bill you’re writing about, we can look at their past statements or votes on vaccination or public health and then you can decide what parts of your letter they might agree with, resist, or ignore.
You could also scan your own draft for spots where you clearly appeal to their values (like personal responsibility, protecting kids, saving taxpayer money, or respecting medical experts) and then guess: which of those values does this senator actually talk about most?

If you pick one short section of your “bottom letter” (maybe the paragraph with those vaccination sentences) and tell me the senator’s name, do you want to click *Continue with AI* so we can map how they’re likely to respond, or go to Create Document to upload your source/draft and think it through there instead?

How would you recomend I write to him to recieve a response

You’re thinking strategically here—that really helps your chances of getting an answer rather than a form letter. A few practical moves that tend to work with state legislators:

Keep it short: aim for 3–5 brief paragraphs, focused on one main issue (here, HB 152 and vaccine excusals in schools).
Make your “hook” obvious in the first line: say you are a constituent in his district, mention your city or neighborhood, and state clearly that you’re writing about HB 152.
Connect it to your life: briefly say why school vaccine exemptions matter to you (kids in school, work in health/education, an immunocompromised family member, concern about outbreaks, etc.).
Ask 1–2 specific questions that require an answer, like “Will you vote for/against HB 152?” and “If it passes, how will you help protect medically vulnerable students?” rather than only making general statements.

If you had to pick just one clear question you want Sen. Cullimore to answer about HB 152 in his reply, what would it be—do you want to click Continue with AI so we can shape that into a short, strong email together, or head over to Create Document to start a fresh draft and collect your thoughts?

One of my elected representatives in Utah is state Senator Kirk A Cullimore. Can you tell me alittle about the senator's positions on bills like HB 152 from the 2026 legislative session, the one about vaccine excusals

Here’s what I can see so far about HB 152 (2026) and what that likely means about Sen. Cullimore’s stance, given his role and past record:

HB 152 in the 2026 General Session is titled Educational Vaccine Exemption Amendments and is sponsored by Rep. Trevor Lee; its fiscal note says it ends the state health department’s vaccine exemption tracking module and produces small ongoing savings. (Utah Legislature, Fiscal Note for HB0152, 2026)
The bill is framed around “educational” vaccine exemptions rather than tightening requirements, and it fits with a broader pattern of Utah GOP measures that expand or protect vaccine exemptions and limit tracking or mandates. (LegiScan, HB0084 history, 2024–2026) (Thomas & Tuttle, 2023)
As of the latest info, HB 152 is still early in the process (committee action in the House, fiscal note released), so there hasn’t yet been a public Senate floor vote where Kirk Cullimore’s individual “yes/no” is recorded on this specific bill. (LegiScan, HB0152 committee roll call, 2026)
Based on his position as Senate Majority Leader and his past leadership on conservative health‑policy and “personal choice” issues (like backing business‑ and worker‑oriented limits on vaccine/employment rules and aligning with his caucus on similar bills), it’s reasonable to expect he is at least open to, if not supportive of, efforts like HB 152 that expand vaccine excusals and reduce tracking rather than strengthen school‑based vaccine enforcement. (Teuscher & Cullimore coverage, 2025)

If you’re looking at measles news and those local‑health‑official warnings you pasted about exemption rates, what’s one question or concern you’d most want to email to Sen. Cullimore about HB 152 right now—would you like to click Continue with AI so we can draft your own talking points together, or head to Create Document to collect articles and notes first?

You’re asking a smart, very specific question here, so I want to separate two things: - HB 152 in Utah is usually a **House bill number used in different years for different topics**, and it changes from session to session. - The **high‑profile social‑media restrictions for minors** in 2023 were actually **SB 152** (a Senate bill), paired with **HB 311**, together called the *Utah Social Media Regulation Act* (they required age‑verification and strong parental control over minors’ social‑media accounts). (Utah Social Media Regulation Act, n.d.) From what’s publicly available:

Kirk A. Cullimore Jr. is a Republican state senator from Sandy/Cottonwood Heights who now serves as **Majority Leader of the Utah Senate** and has generally backed legislation framed as “protecting children” from social‑media harms and addictive tech design, as part of his caucus’s priorities. (Utah Senate, 2024)
The 2023 **social media regulation** package (SB 152/HB 311) required social‑media platforms with over 5 million users to verify age, get **parental consent** for under‑18 accounts, limit late‑night access, and give parents broad access to kids’ accounts; these are the types of measures Cullimore and Senate leadership have publicly highlighted as “protecting children against addictive social media apps.” (Hunton Andrews Kurth, 2023) (Utah Department of Commerce, n.d.)
In general, his voting and leadership record show support for: limiting certain kinds of online harms to minors, expanding legislative power over citizen initiatives, and backing other conservative policy priorities (tax cuts, school choice, etc.). (Kirk Cullimore Jr., n.d.) (Utah Senate, 2024)
Because **“HB 152” could refer to different bills in different years**, I’d need the **year or the topic** (for example, “the 2023 social‑media bill” versus a 2024 or 2025 HB 152 on a totally different subject) to say precisely how he positioned himself on that *exact* bill.

If you tell me what year or topic you mean by “HB 152” (for example, “the social‑media bill for minors in 2023” or another issue), or if you paste the short description of that bill from the Utah Legislature site, I can help you read his position and think about how it lines up—or clashes—with your own priorities; would you like to *Continue with AI* for that, or head over to Create Document to start gathering notes and questions about his record?

Classes are no longer needed, but people looking for an exemption and wanting to know the risks may need to pay up to a $25 fee.
