I oppose the Rank Choice Voting Prop 1 ballot initiative because it will undermine and destroy the principle of one person, one vote.

Weekly Roundup Capitol Legislative Update   Celebrating School Choice This last week, the State Legislature celebrated School Choice Week at the Capitol! I had the honor of speaking on behalf of parents and students

Today, we had a School Choice rally at the Capitol to celebrate National School Choice Week. I am a fierce advocate for parents being able to choose the best educational path for their child, whether that is public, online, charter, homeschooled, or private.

It is important that we never lose sight of the great honor that it is to walk these halls and serve in this building. As we begin a new legislative session, I am once again reminded of the many who have gone before me and the many who will follow.

Betsy had contacted me for a phone interview but I was tied up for days at an education conference. I provided a statement that was not used for the article. The quotes attributed to me were from a prior phone call for a different story.

Here is my complete statement:

The Idaho Senate has a history of respect and civility among its members. As Pro Tem, I will preserve that tradition for our members and extend it to improve our working relationship with the House and the other branches of government. We face unprecedented turnover within our body, and the citizens of Idaho who entrusted us with the important work of legislating and governing expect to see results. I seek to be a bridge between our desire for change and respect for our traditions.

WHO WILL LEAD: Lawmakers face off for Idaho legislative leadership posts BOISE — Contested races for legislative leadership posts are taking shape in both houses of the Idaho Legislature, including for House speaker and Senate president pro tem.

Thank you to all the volunteers and voters! I am humbled and honored for the opportunity to once again serve you in the Legislature. Thankful to continue serving with Representative John Vander Woude and Representative Jason Monks.
