Oh, so THIS is why the Boise city council is full of left-wingers.

Bill requiring Boise and Meridian to elect city council by district overwhelmingly passes House

Yeah I'm not going to feel bad about the state putting its thumb down on the city leadership and pushing them into the dirt.

Boise City council is going to get the ass spanking they’ve been asking for.

This state is not north California.

If I had to guess, I would say that all of this is in response to keeping Loren McLean at bay. The state sees that an actual progressive liberal has been elected mayor, and they're freaking out.

More power to them, by the way.

Not to mention that 2 out of the 3 county commissioners are lib women.

Any news on this? My searches only show a HB 413 from 2018 Re education funding.

I knew nothing about Boise politics until I saw an article about the fire chief, a 30-year veteran, being fired by the new mayor because the chief supported her opponent.  It looks really bad on the city.

Anyone reached out to any reps or anything to show support? I'm relatively new to the valley, Meridian specifically(been here 14 months), and would like nothing more than to make sure the state stays as red as possible.

I assume the governor is expected to sign all of them?

Hey may not. If no action is taken, they will simply become law. He has to actively veto them to stop them.

Otter did this with a lot of stuff. Constitutional carry (the original incarnation in 2016) was one of them. "I have reservations about this, so I'm not signing it." It became law anyway.
