The Summit County Council is threatening to withdraw its membership — and dues — from the Utah Association of Counties after a council member said she was bullied for her Democratic politics at a recent meeting.
In an Oct. 23 letter to the Utah Association of Counties, or UAC, the Summit County Council said that a county commissioner was inappropriately allowed to disrupt a September meeting on public lands to promote President Donald Trump and lobby attendees to sign an op-ed opposing the House impeachment inquiry.
And during the commissioner’s presentation, the Summit County letter states, councilwoman Kim Carson was singled out, humiliated, “and essentially bullied” for her perceived political leanings.
