The MDT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program encourages and supports the participation of companies owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals in transportation contracts.

Monday, Utah Governor Jon Huntsman Jr., signed into law House Bill 260 http://www.cdt.org/speech/20050302hb260.pdf , which — among other things — "allows the Attorney General to seek a civil fine against a service provider that fails to properly block material harmful to minors."

The Center for Democracy & Technology http://www.cdt.org/speech/20050307cdtanalysis.pdf — in objecting to the legislation — said that it would turn ISPs into "Internet traffic cops," and warned that it would likely be overturned in a court challenge, as was a similar Pennsylvania law last year.
