Idaho voters will decide on FOUR statewide ballot measures:

1. Proposition 1: Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act Initiative

What it does:
It establishes a statutory right to reproductive freedom and privacy, including the right to an abortion before fetal viability. This measure effectively aims to roll back Idaho's current near-total abortion ban. It also protects access to contraception, fertility treatments, and miscarriage care.

2. House Joint Resolution 4 (HJR 4): Exclusive Legislative Authority on Controlled Substances

What it does:
This amendment would grant the Idaho State Legislature the sole authority to modify laws surrounding the legalization or decriminalization of ma*****na, narcotics, or other psychoactive substances. A "yes" vote would prevent citizens from using the ballot initiative process to legalize these drugs in the future.

3. House Joint Resolution 6 (HJR 6): English as the Official State Language

What it does:
It would formally add language to the Idaho State Constitution designating English as the official language of the state. While English is already Idaho's official language by standard state law, this measure would enshrine it into the constitution, requiring public documents, official proceedings, and public school instructions to be conducted in English unless federal law dictates otherwise.

4. Official State Gun Advisory Question.

What it does:
This is a non-binding advisory vote asking Idaho citizens whether the state should designate an official state fi***rm from a list of historically significant options. Because it is advisory, the state legislature will make the final determination and must pass an official law to formalize any choice.

I was a Republican from the time I was old enough to vote, but I reached a point where I could no longer put party loyalty ahead of the people I serve.

My principles have not changed: constitutional government, fiscal responsibility, individual freedom, local control, and strong, safe communities. Those are still the values that guide me. (heatherlewisforidaho.com)

As your representative, I won’t make decisions based on a political scorecard, party pressure, or an outside organization. I will read the bills, understand what they actually do, listen to the people and professionals who will be affected, and vote based on what I believe best serves District 8.

Being Independent does not mean walking away from my values. It means having the independence to put people before party and service before politics.

That is why I’m running.
