(Leah Hogsten | Tribune file photo) Rep. Rob Bishop, of Utah's 1st Congressional District, delivers his re-election speech at the Utah Republican Nominating Convention Saturday, April 21, 2018, at the Maverik Center in West Valley City. In provocative remarks to reporters Thursday he said implementing the Green New Deal proposed by some liberals in Congress would be "tantamount to genocide." He later said he was joking, but insisted the plan would be disastrous.
