A proposed long and a short ballot title are available and can be read using the link above. The ballot title describes what the bill is about and it appears on the actual ballot when you go to vote. However, the actual ballot title, that is, the one that will appear on the ballot, may be different than the proposed one available now.

That same principle should apply to mass license plate tracking. When government uses technology to build a searchable database of where citizens travel, it is not just watching the road. It is tracking the people.

Justice Thomas, one of the dissenting justices, argued that the 14th Amendment was adopted to guarantee equal protection and citizenship rights to newly freed slaves following the Civil War. He contended that granting automatic citizenship to the children of those who are unlawfully present in the country was never contemplated by those who drafted and ratified the amendment.

. When it comes to deciding whether criminal laws will actually be enforced in court, prosecutors play one of the most important roles in Idaho’s justice system.

The Idaho Freedom Caucus was founded on the belief that representative government works best when elected officials remain connected to the people they serve. That means showing up not only at the Capitol, but also in county central committees, legislative district organizations, town halls, grassroots events, and state party meetings.

All aspects of our society are becoming more political so it should come as no surprise that law enforcement groups are also becoming more political these days. Knowing their roles, and who they are accountable to may help in your assessment of their endorsements and bring clarity to how decisions are made and who is responsible.

After a single Ibogaine treatment in Mexico, roughly 80% of the soldiers lost their PTSD diagnosis, based on the scans. That number increased to 95% after a second treatment.

It is a textual guardrail ensuring that taxation and spending serve the general (national and collective) welfare through the specific, enumerated means the states delegated. Any other reading transforms the Constitution from a charter of limited, enumerated powers into the very consolidated government the ratifiers explicitly rejected.

Individually, each system may seem harmless but stitched together, they create a daily, if not hourly, pattern of individual movements. This is something previous generations of Americans would have deeply questioned: the ability to monitor citizens continuously without warrants, suspicion, or probable cause.

What this is supposed to look like has sadly been left in the hands of bureaucrats for way too long! Dumping more and more money into a broken system has got us nowhere, certainly not smarter students or training future American leaders. The woke teachers’ unions have bullied the education system for way too long.

This year I watched a bill where a lobbyist was brought in for just 60 days at $15,000 per month (that’s about $500 a day!) to walk the halls of the Capitol and advocate for a specific outcome. And that doesn’t include the additional costs of meetings, dinners, and relationship-building efforts aimed at persuading legislators.

There has been a lot of discussion about two housing bills passed this session that I co-sponsored: S1352a (Starter Home Subdivisions) and S1354a (Accessory Dwelling Units). Some people have claimed these laws take away local control or will dramatically change Idaho communities. I believe much of that concern comes from misunderstanding what these bills actually do.

Idaho Freedom Caucus member are proud of these efforts and happy to report that the 2026 budget and the 2027 budget have both decreased! It’s simple: if Idahoans must live within their means, so do state agencies.

Because Idaho legislators in the past were not detailed enough with the law, many financial “judicial industries” have been built up around these family issues. Substantive parental rights appear to be ignored by the judges and courts.

This year, I ran nearly 40 bills and legislative measures, and I am proud to report that 29 of those passed all the way into law. That is a strong record of conservative leadership and real results for District 10 and the people of Idaho.

Signing a 287(g) MOA with ICE gives your sheriff’s office some extra federal tools without turning your deputies into full-time immigration agents. Think of it as adding a useful upgrade to your existing law enforcement toolkit.

Questions like, ‘How can you claim to be a Christian and still support reductions in health care spending, Medicaid, Medicare, or services for the disabled?’ can weigh heavily on legislators. These arguments often come from people who believe government has a moral duty to provide broad material support, and they are framed in deeply moral and even religious terms.

Under this law, products that are cell cultivated or produced through newer technologies must be labeled in a way that accurately reflects their ingredients and how they are made. Simply put, if a product is not traditional meat, it should not be presented in a way that confuses consumers into thinking that it is.

Had the authorized amount of gold bullion been purchased back in 2024 at the time of the veto, the state would have made $375 million. Had the investment been in silver, the gain would have been $933 million.

In summary, S1296 is a commonsense update: It defines church trespass to prevent intentional disruptions, and applies measured penalties to protect real victims—worshipers exercising their rights. By passing this, we safeguard religious liberty amid rising threats.
