Celeste Maloy Wrote the Bill a Golf Developer Needed. Three Days After It Passed, He Wrote Her a $15,500 Check.
Maloy's bill moves lawsuits over Shivwits tribal land into Utah state court and allows 99-year leases — exactly what a developer needs to build a 1,250-acre golf resort on the reservation. That developer's managing partner gave Maloy's campaign and a joint fundraising committee tied to her $30,500.
