Passed Senate

Summary

Honoring the life and legacy of Mia Bourdeau Love, a Utah leader who broke barriers in local and national politics. The resolution recounts her biography — born in Brooklyn on December 6, 1975 to Haitian immigrant parents Jean Maxime and Marie Bourdeau — and highlights her public service on the Saratoga Springs City Council, her 2009 election as Utah's first African-American woman mayor, and her 2014 election as the first Black Republican woman to serve in Congress. It notes her faith as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, her focus on fiscal responsibility and civic leadership, her memoir Qualified written after a cancer diagnosis, and her later work as a commentator and author. The resolution expresses the Senate's profound sorrow, asks the Secretary of the Senate to transmit an enrolled copy to her family and to the House of Representatives, and directs the Senate to stand adjourned as a mark of respect.
