PLEASE SHARE THIS IMPORTANT MESSAGE Why did the Meridian Chamber of Commerce decide in their ultimate wisdom that they should wade in on the recall issue of the West Ada School District? Our question is why is a business organization getting involved in a school board recall? It all comes down to money, power and […]
Why is a highly successful Doctor like Jason West willing to give up 3 months a year of his practice to be a Representative for District 28 in Idaho? Listen to his story and you will see why this man is willing to become a citizen legislator.
I’m very disappointed with the Governor’s decision to veto the use of bibles as a reference book in our schools. Ever since the 1962/63 decision by the Supreme Court we have seen a spiritually significant event in our country’s history and a slow but steady change in our children’s attitudes in our public schools.

Let us remind you of the Board Members of IACI who benefited from the state exchange. Mountain View Hospital, Saint Alphonso’s Health System, Saint Luke’s Health System. Blue […]
Dear Legislator: I’m not sure how bill S1231 came into existence, but I’m sure it had nothing to do with the modernizing of language as stated in you statement of purpose. This is an out and out retraction of services that have been allowed by Chiropractic physicians for many years, and it makes us wonder […]
This is a question we get asked all too often by our readers, and we are amazed how IACI has been able to keep themselves so far out of the political limelight for most of Idaho’s citizens? IACI stands for the Idaho Association of Commerce and Industry, or as we like to call it the […]
