Rep. Mike Noel has decided to retire from the Utah Legislature

After shady activities involving personal property affected by national monument designations and a proposed bill that would have renamed scenic roads in southern Utah as the Donald J. Trump Highway, Utah Rep. Mike Noel is retiring from the Utah Legislature after 16 years.

During his tenure, Noel served as Chairman of the House Rules Committee and gained a certain level of infamy for promoting the downsizing of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, a divisive hot-button topic among Utahns.

Despite claiming that he pulled the bill after he and his family received death threats, and regardless that a death threat could be cited as either a personal or a political affair, Noel insists that his retirement is due to personal rather than political reasons.
