LOGAN - Rep. Casey Snider will be the Utah House majority leader for the 67th Legislature (2027-2028), the House Majority Caucus said in a Nov. 9 announcement. Snider represents House District 5, which is in Cache County, according to the Legislature's legislator data.

The Senate Majority Caucus picked Sen. Chris Wilson as its majority leader for the same term, a Nov. 6 Senate announcement says. Wilson represents Senate District 2, which covers Cache and Rich counties, the legislator data shows.

The House caucus also elected Mike Schultz as speaker and chose Rep. Candice Pierucci as majority whip and Rep. Cal Roberts as assistant whip. Senate Republicans chose Sen. Evan Vickers as president, Sen. Michael McKell as whip and Sen. Keven Stratton as assistant whip.

Snider has held the post since June 2025, when the caucus elected him to finish the term of Jefferson Moss, who resigned to lead the Governor's Office of Economic Opportunity, a June 3, 2025, House announcement says. The 2027 general session begins Jan. 19.

Why this matters

Both majority leaders for the next two years represent Cache County voters. Residents who want to weigh in on bills before the session opens Jan. 19 can reach their House member and state senator through the Legislature's website.
