Health Freedom Idaho is working tirelessly to pass common-sense bills that would restrict or ban toxic mosquito abatement sprays and similar chemical […]
I walked into the “God Country” vigil for Charlie Kirk with hesitation. Events like this are not usually my style. I am more reserved, and there has always been a certain unease for me in large public gatherings where faith and politics intertwine. Inspired by Faith and Country: But being there changed me. The participation […]
BOISE — Attorney General Raúl Labrador announced today that U.S. District Judge David Nye rejected plaintiff Lindsay Hecox’s attempt to dismiss the district court case in Hecox v.

Why haven’t you heard about this? Because the […]
They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Boise is living proof. On the surface, Mayor Lauren McLean’s gestures look noble, promoting inclusion, accountability, and progress.

Dear Friends, This week, I had the chance to speak about something that matters deeply to every parent and to me personally. The right of parents to make their own choices when it comes to guiding their children’s upbringing. The question is as straightforward as it gets.

But while those contests grab the headlines, it’s the quieter local elections that often shape our daily lives the most. On November 4th, Idahoans will once again have the chance to vote—this time for city […]
Amid many pressing events—the Charlie Kirk shooting, the passing of President Russel M. Nelson, and the tragedy in Michigan—the ongoing government shutdown hasn’t received the attention and explanation it deserves. I want to clarify what’s really happening with the shutdown, the Big Beautiful Bill, and how appropriation works. What’s Causing the Shutdown? The federal government […]
Dear Friends, After five years of litigation, Idaho’s Fairness in Women’s Sports Act has finally reached the United States Supreme Court. Now, at this crucial moment, the ACLU is trying to dismiss the case entirely, not because the issue has been resolved, but because they understand the strength of our arguments. Last week, my office […]
A friend once opined that to him, the meaning of life is having the right tool for the job and happiness is achieved when you do the things you love to do. Combine those two axioms and you have the recipe for success. With the approaching election, you will be deciding who you think will […]
