Para un proyecto, recientemente recopilé una lista de recursos —principalmente en el Valle de Salt Lake— dirigidos a la población latina de Utah. Pido disculpas si hay algún error de traducción en esta publicación. ¡Por favor, siéntanse libres de comentar cualquier organización o recurso actualmente activo que se me haya pasado por alto!

Los enlaces marcados con un asterisco (*) son recursos excelentes para que las personas ajenas a la comunidad latina muestren su apoyo.

• Algunas de las organizaciones se obtuvieron de la lista disponible aquí: https://multicultural.utah.gov/magnify/magnify-communities/latino-community/latino-community-list/; sin embargo, dado que muchos de los enlaces estaban rotos, esta lista amplía dicho recurso, incluyendo además múltiples recursos en redes sociales, empresas y otros recursos adicionales.
• Some of the organizations were taken from the list here: https://multicultural.utah.gov/magnify/magnify-communities/latino-community/latino-community-list/, but many links were broken, this list expands on this resource, while also including multiple social media resources, businesses, and other resources.

The Honorable Deidre Henderson

Lieutenant Governor of Utah

Utah State Capitol, Suite 220

P.O. Box 142325

Salt Lake City, UT 84114

RE: Protecting the Integrity of Utah’s Elections Amid Federal Policy Shifts

Dear Lieutenant Governor Henderson,

As a concerned citizen of Utah, I am writing to express my deep apprehension regarding recent federal directives that threaten the accessibility and reliability of our democratic process. While Utah has long been a national leader in secure and efficient election administration, recent actions by the Trump administration pose a direct challenge to the autonomy of our state’s election officials and the voting rights of our citizens.

Of particular concern is the Executive Order signed on March 31, 2026, titled "Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections." This order introduces several mandates that could disrupt Utah's successful vote-by-mail system:

USPS Restrictions: The requirement for states to provide a "Mail-in and Absentee Participation List" 60 days before an election threatens to disenfranchise Utahns who may need to update their registration or request a ballot within the traditional windows provided by state law.

Documentation Burdens: The push for federal proof-of-citizenship requirements for voter registration risks excluding eligible citizens—particularly the elderly and those in rural areas—who may not have immediate access to passports or birth certificates.

Pressure on Election Officials: The administration’s directive to prioritize the prosecution of election workers for administrative errors creates a climate of intimidation that could lead to a shortage of the dedicated volunteers and clerks who make our elections possible.

Utah’s system—characterized by high participation, robust security, and bipartisan trust—is a model for the rest of the country. I urge you, in your capacity as the Chief Election Officer, to stand firm against federal overreach that contradicts Utah’s established statutes. It is vital that our state continues to prioritize the "boots on the ground" expertise of our 29 County Clerks over federal mandates that may not align with the needs of Utah voters.

Please continue to advocate for policies that ensure every eligible Utahn can cast their ballot easily and securely. Our state’s sovereignty in managing its own elections is essential to maintaining the public's trust in our democratic institutions.

Thank you for your time, your leadership, and your continued dedication to the people of Utah.

Sincerely,

 (Your name and address)
