Utah ACLU director plans to step down
Eyer started volunteering with the ACLU the week after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and was selected as the new director within a year.
"Organizations can always use an influx of energy and change," Eyer said.
The Utah ACLU board is conducting a national search. Eyer will stay on until a replacement is found.
Eyer has been the voice of the Utah ACLU on controversial issues such as Utah's constitutional ban of same-sex marriage. Perhaps the highest-profile issue of Eyer's tenure was a lawsuit challenging the sale of a block of Main Street to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
