I know the State of Utah and its residents receive more from D.C. than goes to D.C. from Utah. State government should consider limiting state spending of Federal dollars to the amount that could be replaced by keeping the highway and other funds it collects and sends to Washington.

The State of Utah should not be so dependent on Federal dollars. We now think lots of things that the state did not do in the past are essential, but those expenses should be re-evaluated. Sundance Film Festival comes to mind. It is not a big expense, but I am sure there are many, MANY more. They add up.
