For two years, you have been sold a narrative: that Idaho’s pro-life law is so dangerous, so vague, that doctors have no choice but to airlift dying women out of state rather than treat them. It’s been the centerpiece of a news story and a federal lawsuit. Now it’s part of the argument for Prop […]
Two hundred and fifty years ago this week, a small group of courageous individuals declared that a decent respect for the opinions of mankind required them to state plainly why they were breaking from the most powerful empire on earth. The principles they penned were revolutionary then. In many ways, they remain revolutionary today. I […]
The protection of life was engrained in the very substance from which America was formed long before our birth.

Following the 2024 legislative primaries, I wrote about dueling endorsements from Idaho Freedom PAC (IFPAC), which is associated with the Idaho Freedom Foundation (IFF), and the Idaho Prosperity Fund (IPF), which is associated with the Idaho Association of Commerce and Industry (IACI). Both organizations maintain legislative scorecards, and I’ve noted in the past that lawmaker […]
During the 2026 legislative session, my colleagues and I have continued working to ensure Idaho laws reflect the values of our communities and provide clarity for both consumers and businesses.
