During the session, Republican legislators are expected to repeal a controversial bill limiting public employee unions, something that could happen if the bill goes on the 2026 ballot.
The Salt Lake Tribune reports labor groups previously spent $3 million gathering a quarter million signatures in hopes of rolling back the anti-union law.
Legislators may also postpone the candidate filing period. It would give them time to ask the Utah Supreme Court to throw out a new court-ordered congressional map they say creates a Democratic-leaning seat.
Lawmakers could also propose a new constitutional amendment that would weaken citizens’ rights to ballot initiatives.
The special session starts at 6 p.m. on Dec. 9.
