OAG secures conviction of HVAC owner on 11 counts for paying workers off the book and tax evasion
A jury has convicted Wayne Margetts, a Tooele County HVAC business owner, on 11 felony counts for hiding more than $780,000 in employee wages from the state.
Margetts was convicted of five counts of tax evasion, five counts of rendering a false tax return or supplying false information, and one count of pattern of unlawful activity.
From 2013 to 2018, Margetts paid more than 30 employeesan approximate $1,600,000 but reported about $820,000 in wages to the Utah State Tax Commission, hiding more than $780,000 in compensation from the state.
He did this by underreporting employees' hours, manipulating wage rates, paying workers off-books, and writing checks to an employee's spouse with no corresponding tax withholding.
Utah law requires employers to withhold state income tax from employee wages and send those withholdings to the Tax Commission each quarter. Margetts failed to meet this obligation for five years, leaving an estimated $20,000 in unpaid withholding tax and an estimated $25,000 in interest and penalties owed to the state.
On May 1, after a five-day trial, a Third District Court jury found Margetts guilty. He will be sentenced on June 4, 2026.
The Utah State Tax Commission's Criminal Investigation Unit investigated the case. The Financial Crimes Division prosecuted it.

Shapiro Administration Invests $2.7 Million in Pre-Apprenticeship Opportunities, Empowering More Young Pennsylvanians with Classroom Instruction, Hands-on Training to Chart Their Own Course
Workforce development is a cornerstone of Governor Josh Shapiro's Administration and his 2026-27 budget plan calls for continued strategic investments in Schools-to-Work, apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship programs, career and technical education, and more.
*
The PennsylvaniaDepartment of Labor & Industry (L&I) today announced $2.7 million in grant investments to support the expansion and creation of 11 Schools-to-Work programs across Pennsylvania. L&I's Schools-to-Work program bridges classroom learning with real-world opportunity, aligning training with in-demand industries and workforce needs across the Commonwealth. The program strengthens partnerships among school districts, career and technical centers, employers, workforce boards, and training providers to help high school students graduate with a clear pathway into their chosen field, registered apprenticeship, or post-secondary education. This latest investment underscores Governor Josh Shapiro's ongoing commitment to supporting Pennsylvania's young people and the workforce of tomorrow.
"Every young person across our Commonwealth deserves the chance to discover their potential and chart a path to success," said L&I Secretary Nancy A. Walker. "The Shapiro Administration is proud to invest in Schools-to-Work and pre-apprenticeship programs that expand access to meaningful career opportunities, strengthen our workforce pipeline, and ensure employers can find the skilled talent they need right here at home."
Over the past three years, Governor Shapiro has made investing in workforce development a key priority. The Commonwealth increased funding for apprenticeship programs and career and technical education by nearly 50 percent, from $118 million to $183 million, and registered 249 new pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship programs.
The Governor's 2026-27 budget plan looks to build on three years of historic progress by proposing to:
* Invest an additional $18 million in CTE and apprenticeship programs;
* Double Schools-to-Work funding to $7 million;
* Increase Industry Partnership grants by $3.5 million to $6.3 million; and
* Increase state funding for the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation by $1 million.
The investments announced today will continue to strengthen Pennsylvania's workforce talent pipeline and ensure students graduate with the skills, credentials, and experience they need to succeed; the $2.7 million investment is 100% state funded.

Senate Passes Ward Bills to Increase Penalties for Causing Unintentional Death and Reinforce Commercial Vehicle Safety in Pennsylvania
Sen. Judy Ward (R-30) today announced the Senate approved legislation she introduced to increase penalties for causing unintentional death on the roadway, as well as comprehensive bills aimed at strengthening commercial vehicle safety standards and closing dangerous loopholes in Pennsylvania's licensing and training systems.
Senate Bill1286, known as the "Kyle Costrello and Glenn Compton Law", would increase the penalties associated with unintentional death, including an ungraded misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $2,500 and a license suspension of up to two years. The legislation is named after two individuals who lost their lives in traffic accidents, resulting in penalties their families feel were not equal to justice.
"The Kyle Costrello and Glenn Compton Law will close the loophole in our state's vehicle code that allows people who cause these tragic accidents to face minor penalties, despite the unimaginable loss those accidents cause," said Ward, who chairs the Senate Transportation Committee. "I want to thank my colleagues in the Senate for voting in favor of this bill, which will hopefully help provide some sense of closure for those grieving the loss of their loved ones, and I urge members of the House to do the same."
The Senate also approved Senate Bills 1294 and 1295, which followed a Senate Transportation Committee fact-finding hearing exposing alarming gaps in current laws, including instances where individuals without proper training or English proficiency have operated heavy commercial vehicles on U.S. highways.
Under federal law, states must issue nondomiciled commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) to lawfully present drivers authorized to work temporarily in the U.S. However, the committee's hearing revealed that current training and oversight systems lack cohesion and standardization, allowing unqualified training providers -- known as CDL mills -- to operate recklessly and endanger public safety.
"Whenever someone steps behind the wheel and drives on Pennsylvania's roads, they need to know their safety and the safety of their passengers is secure," said Ward. "In passing these pieces of legislation, we are giving drivers peace of mind that we are holding bad actors accountable and maintaining the highest standards of road safety across our commonwealth."
Senate Bill 1294 will end CDL mills by empowering the Pennsylvania Department of Education to enforce stronger penalties against illegitimate CDL training providers.
Senate Bill 1295 will require English proficiency for all CDL testing, ensuring these drivers can safely operate 80,000-pound commercial vehicles on public highways. While CDL manuals will remain available in multiple languages, all testing will be conducted in English.
Recent reports have highlighted cases where criminal illegal migrants obtained CDLs without meeting federal requirements, resulting in serious accidents. One was a fatal crash in the state of Indiana involving a Pennsylvania-issued, non-domiciled CDL held by a citizen of Kyrgyzstan.
All of the bills will now be sent to the House of Representatives for consideration.

Senate Committee Approves Attainable Housing Package
A package of legislation aimed at expanding access to attainable housing while preserving local control and neighborhood character has advanced out of the Senate Urban Affairs and Housing Committee, chaired by Senator Joe Picozzi (R-5).
"Pennsylvania's housing shortage is no longer a distant concern - it's a present and growing challenge," Picozzi said. "If we want to expand access to housing, we need to build more homes - but wemust do it the right way. That means respecting neighborhoods, giving communities a real voice, and ensuring growth benefits the people who live there".
Across Pennsylvania, rising housing costs are putting pressure on families, pricing out young professionals, and making it harder for seniors to remain in their homes. To address these challenges, Picozzi and his colleagues are advancing a coordinated package of reforms designed to increase housing supply, reduce costs, and support smart sustainable growth.
The legislation includes:
* Senate Bill 803, sponsored by Senator Rosemary Brown (R-40), which establishes the First-Time Homebuyers Savings Accounts, allowing individuals to save for a home with tax advantages.
* Senate Bill 1277, sponsored by Senator Pat Stefano (R-32), which updates the law to give communities more flexibility to offer up to 20 years of tax relief, helping spur construction of new homes and local growth.
* Senate Bill 1278, sponsored by Senator Picozzi, which creates a Residential Economic Development District (REDD) Grant Program to support the construction of housing near job centers through partnerships between local government and developers.
* Senate Bill 1279, sponsored by Senator Kristin Phillips-Hill (R-28), which creates a Housing Development Regulatory Compliance Officer to serve as a single point of contact and improve coordination in the permitting process.
* Senate Bill 1281, sponsored by Senator Greg Rothman (R-34), which streamlines municipal approval processes by allowing pre-approved housing plans, reducing delays and cutting unnecessary red tape.
The package also promotes commonsense reforms such as modernizing zoning practices, encouraging redevelopment of underused properties, and supporting infill development - all while maintaining local input in how communities grow.
The bills now move to the full Senate for consideration.

SPRINGFIELD, Illinois, May 7 -- Gov. JB Pritzker, D-Illinois, issued the following news release on May 6, 2026:
* * *
Governor Pritzker Announces $56 Million in Available Grant Funding for Community Development Block Grant Programs
Governor JB Pritzker and the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) today announced $56 million in funding is available for the Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) for Public Infrastructure ($25 million), Housing Rehabilitation ($15 million), Community Revitalization ($13 million), and Emergency Assistance ($3 million). Granteeswill be selected through a competitive Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) process.
"Here in Illinois, we're committed to improving our infrastructure, our housing options, and our people's quality of life," said Governor JB Pritzker. "From public water systems to homes for our working families, these Community Development Block Grant Program investments will transform lives across the state. I encourage all eligible entities to apply for this critical grant funding."
"Every community--no matter its size or zip code--deserves safe infrastructure, stable housing, and the opportunity to thrive," said Lieutenant Governor Julina Stratton. These investments will help uplift working families, strengthen neighborhoods, and ensure that all of Illinois can share in our state's growth and opportunity. By targeting resources where they are needed most, we're building a stronger, more resilient future for communities across our state."
Community Development Block Grant for Public Infrastructure
Public Infrastructure grants are designed to provide communities with funding to improve public infrastructure, public health and quality of life. These projects include construction of storm sewer pipes, waterline replacements, and water storage tank construction, and other critical projects that help mitigate flooding and support sewage management, water delivery and other public water necessities.
Community Development Block Grant for Housing Rehabilitation
Housing Rehabilitation grants are designed to assist low-to-moderate income homeowners with improvements to ensure safe and sanitary living conditions. Eligible uses of funds include structural work, lead remediation, electrical, plumbing, new appliances, flooring, ADA and accessibility accommodations, and more.
Community Development Block Grant for Community Revitalization
Community Revitalization grants are a new addition to the CDBG Grant Program. Community Revitalization grants are designed to address structures that pose a health and safety hazard, crumbling sidewalks and streetscapes that make pedestrian traffic difficult, commercial facades with deferred maintenance, preservation of historic structures that tell their story, and closed buildings that could be used for new purposes.
An additional $3 million is available for Emergency Assistance projects funded by the Community Development Block Grant on an as-needed basis.
"The success of the Community Development Block Grant Program has been essential to ensuring all of Illinois' communities are safe and healthy," said DCEO Director Kristin Richards. "This funding opportunity will build upon the State's commitment to improving the quality of life for all Illinoisans."
Eligible applicants can apply for Public Infrastructure grants from $300,000 to $1.5 million, Housing Rehabilitation grants from $300,000 to $800,000, and Community Revitalization grants from $250,000 to $2 million. Applications for both Public Infrastructure and Housing Rehabilitation grants will be accepted until August 27, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Applications for Community Revitalization funding will be accepted on a rolling basis once the Notice of Funding Opportunity is posted. DCEO will be hosting an Application Workshop and Technical Assistance webinar for Public Infrastructure and Housing Rehabilitation grant applicants on May 7, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. Interested applicants can register and find more information on the DCEO website.
"A thriving community begins with strong public infrastructure and a safe and secure place to call home," said U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL). "These Community Development Block Grants will help stabilize the neighborhoods that need it the most and provide Illinoisans with a better quality of life."
"This key funding will help strengthen smaller communities across our state by supporting projects that improve the day-to-day lives of Illinois families," said U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL). "I'm pleased to see this significant investment help improve affordable housing, expand accessibility, repair crumbling sidewalks and mitigate flooding in neighborhoods across Illinois. I will continue working alongside Governor Pritzker, Senator Durbin and local leaders to ensure Illinois families receive the resources they need to thrive."
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program was established by the U.S. Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 ("HCD Act"). These state-administered funds are earmarked exclusively for non-metropolitan communities that do not receive CDBG entitlement funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). All projects must meet a CDBG National Objective as defined by HUD.
