Recent anti-ABS legislation in Colorado and Illinois seems to have dominated headlines over the past couple of months. There is likely more to come on this front, unfortunately. But there have been some positive developments as well. On May 15, 2026, the Utah Supreme Court announced that the Sandbox is now in Phase 3: Implementation. During this phase they will focus on sunsetting the Sandbox and institutionalizing reform efforts. Learn more about potential institutional reforms on the Supreme Court’s Ad Hoc Committee on Regulatory Reform Resources page. The Sandbox is scheduled to sunset on August 14, 2027. Related, last month IAALS published its final report in connection with the interim evaluation of the Utah Sandbox—a social return on investment analysis.
