Dear Friends, Twenty-five years ago today, America changed forever. I can still remember that morning. When I arrived at work, people were gathered around the television, watching in shock and disbelief. As I joined them, the second plane struck the South Tower. In that instant, we understood that our nation was under attack and that […]
25 years ago, our world changed forever. Radical Muslim terrorists hijacked four airplanes, crashing them into the two towers of the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania. 2,977 people were killed in the worst terror attack in American history. For the victims and their families, it was a shocking tragedy. Men […]
BOISE, ID – Attorney General Raúl Labrador and a bipartisan coalition of 48 other attorneys general are pushing the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to strengthen its “Know Your Upstream Provider” (KYUP) requirements to help prevent scammers from using the U.S. phone network to make illegal robocalls. KYUP rules require voice service providers to ensure that they […]
I want to personally thank Senator Brian Lenney for making known the problems that Idahoans will face if indeed this Micron FAB is permitted to be built under the auspices of 18-year-old legislation never used for the purpose it was written. This will leave Idaho’s citizens to once again pick up the tab for Idaho […]
Many Americans realize that citizens lost control over the government decades ago. It seems there is nothing left to rob from them, freedoms have been taken, rights are usurped, speech is targeted. What is left is just threads of what was once the greatest country on earth. Just three days before Thanksgiving in 2025, when […]
When President Trump recently announced that local ranchers could process their own beef, it sparked several important conversations. Local conversations in Idaho are generally positive, as most Idahoans see the existing beef industry as being overregulated. However, there are some who do not see it that way. I see this as a pattern to change […]
There was a time in American history when human beings were not considered to be fully human. Southern plantation owners saw African slaves as property, having the same value as an ox or horse. Southern politicians did their best to avoid talking about the actual horrors of chattel slavery, preferring instead to use euphemisms like […]
I am writing this first as a mom. I am a mother who has sent her children into Idaho’s public education system and trusted that system to teach them, support them and prepare them for their futures. I am also a mother whose child struggled deeply within that system. That experience eventually led me into […]
Dear Friends, This week, I was honored and humbled to present the Idaho Medal of Honor to nine recipients – law enforcement and firefighters – for acts of courage that went far beyond what their jobs required. Given what society already demands of these public servants on an average day, their actions speak volumes about their […]

I constantly hear on the news from both conservative and liberal media that Americans are complaining about unaffordability and how families are struggling to make ends meet under the Trump Administration. Well, it is high time that middle America woke up and discovered that it is not Trump’s fault that things are unaffordable. The left […]
In my class, I like to ask students a simple question: what’s the first word in the US Constitution after the Preamble? Most guess wrong. Look it up yourself — it’s “All.” The full sentence: “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States.” Not most. Not some, subject […]
