LDS Church leaders visit the Huntsmans
"It was an enjoyable private visit," Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr.'s spokesman, Mike Mower, said of the meeting between the LDS Church's top three leaders and the governor, first lady Mary Kaye Huntsman, Lt. Gov. Gary Herbert and his wife, Jeanette.
No issues were raised during the meeting, Mower said, including the governor's budget released earlier this week. "The conversations focused on personal and family discussions and not on policy."
The LDS Church has yet to weigh in publicly on Huntsman's proposed $100 million tax cut that is expected to encourage a majority of Utahns to choose to pay a flat tax that would not allow them to take deductions for charitable contributions.
Mower said LDS Church President Gordon B. Hinckley, President Thomas S. Monson, first counselor in the First Presidency and President James E. Faust, second counselor in the First Presidency, toured the mansion to view the Christmas decorations.
