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.

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.

I continue to support efforts to reduce the tax burden on Idaho families, including property tax relief, lowering income taxes, and expanding tax credits that help Idaho families keep more of what they earn.

In response to these dangers, Senator Tammy Nichols, alongside Representatives Heather Scott and Elaine Price, introduced legislation to protect Idahoans from these control mechanisms.

That is why I recently introduced legislation to address this issue early and responsibly. The rat abatement bill is focused and practical. It declares invasive rats a public nuisance under existing Idaho law and improves coordination and reporting so the problem can be addressed quickly.

The present monetary arrangements of the United States are unconstitutional --even anti-constitutional—from top to bottom.

Every bill we introduce is designed to enhance the sovereignty, safety, sanity, and health of our state. Likewise, we will fight against any poor legislation that stands in contrast to the liberty and prosperity of Idahoans.

In committee, we heard four RS’s, including two that will address immigration issues.

Will authorizing Congress to call a convention to reopen our nation’s foundational document in an already polarized political environment usher in unity, restraint, and calm? Will it really be a cure for financial calamity? I doubt it. And I suspect many Americans do too.
