Utah lawmakers are winding down their annual session after reaching a deal to allow more alcohol in beer, passing a ban on most abortions after 18 weeks and scaling back a voter-approved Medicaid expansion.
Other failed to pass, including a ban on LGBT conversion therapy. The legislative session ends Thursday.
Lawmakers also decided to postpone action on sweeping tax reform, although they wrote fail-safes into the state's $19 billion budget to ensure that action happens later this year.
Some of the actions sparked protests, such as the move to shrink Medicaid expansion and the failure of the conversion-therapy ban.
Lawmakers say the Medicaid decisions were essential to controlling long-term costs, but on conversion therapy, they vowed to continue the conversation.
