The Petition: https://idahofreedom.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Petition-for-Review-3.pdf In our democracy we must respect the ‘will of the people’ is a phrase we have all heard, but is it true? Is the democratic majority the ultimate standard of what is right? Imagine for the moment that there is a voter initiative on the ballot, call it Proposition 0, that specifies […]

We took the time this past week to attend an open Ada County Commissioners’ hearing for Priscilla Giddings, a state representative from Idaho County. What we found out was quite interesting and somewhat confusing. The lawyer for Mrs. Giddings presented a very cogent case stating all of the necessary requirements under Idaho law on what […]
Time the truth is out. Rep. Megan Blanksma used Oscar Evans as a substitute to fill her spot in the last session of the Legislature. Rep Blanksma then persuaded Oscar to run against her seatmate.

Since I’m a precinct committeeman for District 14/18, we took the time to go to the Ambrose School to listen to the Debate of the five candidates running for Senator in District 14. I must say we were sorely disappointed not only with the weak attendance but also with the weak choices that are running […]
Senator Nonini opens up his article by saying this is one of the most important primaries Idaho has seen in decades. I think that we will all agree with that statement and then some. There are over 200 candidates running for various legislative offices in this primary and the selection by the voters is going […]
Idaho is fortunate to have some solid conservative legislators serving in our state capitol, but they are in need of a helping hand to prevent Idaho from slipping off the foundation of our American Heritage. Due in large part to the exodus of conservatives from states suffering social and economic deterioration thanks to serial mismanagement […]

The legislative session has officially concluded for 2018. This year there were 1,600 pieces of drafted legislation, 950 bills introduced in committee, and 607 total bills printed and considered. That’s a lot of legislating going on. If you’re like me, you’re probably a bit nervous about seeing so many new bills and new laws. I […]
