Republicans in Congress would rather shut the government down than work with Democrats.

Idaho families deserve better than this.

At moments like this, we must come together as Americans to reject hate and division. Charlie Kirk's death is a tragic reminder that violence can never replace dialogue or democracy. Our hearts go out to the children who lost a father, the wife who lost a husband, and the rest of Mr. Kirk’s family.

61 years ago, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Wilderness Act, with Idaho’s Sen. Frank Church as one of the driving forces behind it.

Today, Idaho Democrats carry forward his legacy, fighting to keep our wild places public, protected, and open to all.

A strong economy? Prices are up, budgets are getting slashed mid-year, and Republicans like Brad Little are still patting themselves on the back.

It’s bullshit, and they know it.

The time is now for a special session to repeal the $50M voucher scheme, the first step to end the waste, fix the budget, and protect essential services.
