UTAH — Utah Gov. Spencer Cox met with President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Cabinet members and senior White House advisors at the White House today.

Cox was joined by the governors of over 40 states and territories to discuss affordable housing, artificial intelligence, workforce development, disaster response and more at the winter meeting of the National Governors Association.

“Governors agree that overcoming our nation’s challenges requires working together — across party lines and across state lines,” Cox said. “We can’t let political division get in the way of good policy. We welcome the opportunity to work with the White House and with Congress on finding bipartisan solutions to border security, economic stability and other challenges.”
