Thank you, Sen. Glenneda. We didn’t get what we hoped for in some leadership positions, so your efforts on JFAC and H&W will be even more important than ever. Thank you for representing the people on these important committees!
The BLM and Lava Ridge decision is a travesty. Rep Simpson and Sen Risch, Gov Little, AG Labrador, and others at high levels seem determined to fight this egregious overstep to the last windmill blade. RFK Jr. also knows the issues with wind energy. So maybe if everyone shows up in Washington to oppose this, they can appeal to the Trump administration to stop the willful destruction of Idaho (for CA and special interest benefit).
In 2023 the state raked in $403M in tax revenue from the tax on food at the grocery store. The state refunded $199M via the grocery tax credit. The state made a profit off of Idahoans of $200M!!
Where did that "profit" go? How was it spent? Idaho needs to repeal the tax we pay on food at the grocery store. We are being taxed to death and also being taxed on a basic human need, like food, is not a good look for Idaho. There are 13 states that charge people tax on groceries and it really needs to stop.
Will anything be done this session to repeal the grocery tax?
I am in Oregon, and wish to tell anyone who can process this, and use to attempt a blockage of the projects. Am an old Fed military analyst. Back in 1969 - 72 the White hats in Congress knew what was coming that we now have in spades. The process the Congress set up was called and is a demand process by we the people, to require the Agencies meet and confer ( not ) explain to the slaves ) what they intend. The options include NO build - I am including
wordage to explain the requirement. If the Agency does not respond in 60 days, you can do what the NGO's do and file suit in Fed district Court, and block- you all have seen them do this. To the Document wordage- bit long for this, but I have tried on my own, and the County or Associations, Indian Tribes have an issue of implanted fear of push back. THE FED itself created this, and the NGOS use the rules and win continuously-
To the Doc and I have everything - just no one has the backbone, believe me I have been trying. ############################################################
DOC BEGINNING:
Summary:
Coordination involves federal laws that require the federal government to meet local government to resolve differences in their plans. An executive order enhanced Coordination by allowing numerous entities, including non-governmental organizations, to engage the federal government. Any local government — from a city or county to a school or water district, and any NGO — may invoke Coordination, thus forcing the federal government to meet with them on an equal basis to reach consistency in their plans. Congress has defined “coordination” as a government-to-government communication process, seeking consistency, in which local government has an equal negotiating position with the federal agencies. This government-to- government communication negotiating process allows local government to participate on an equal basis in all phases of planning and management of land, water and wildlife resources. Such consistency will allow local governments to once again protect the local tax base, sustain a viable and stable local economy, and protect the public health and safety. Clear direction exists for local governments to use coordination to fairly represent citizens in bringing back local control from runaway big governments. This will not create bureaucratic burdens on local government as some have suggested. On the contrary, experience has shown that the proper use of the coordination process relieves burdens imposed by special interest groups and their constant harassment by lawsuits which result in getting citizens off the land, away from any productive use of natural resources, and which promote risks to life and property.
AN ORDINANCE FOR LOCAL COORDINATION ON FEDERAL REGULATIONS
(A) Definitions.
(1) “Coordinate” means the action necessary to achieve coordination.
(2) “Coordination” means the process by which an agency of the federal government brings its regulations, whether proposed or established, into consistency with the public policy of [Insert Jurisdiction]. This process includes a series of regular meetings in [Insert Jurisdiction] between the federal agency’s representatives and [Insert Jurisdiction]’s representatives on a government-to-government basis.
(3) “Consistency” means a federal agency’s plans or proposals for regulations must be harmonized with the local government’s plans per the Congressional authority found in NEPA and FLPMA. The mandated direction for the flow of harmonizing these regulations is from the federal agency to the local government, not the other way around.
(4) “Jurisdiction” means any local unit of government as defined by the state. This may include any district of duly elected officials such as a city, county, school board district, irrigation district, mining district, soil and water conservation district, fire district, cemetery district, etc.
(5) “In good faith,” in this ordinance, means that the federal agency with which [Insert Jurisdiction] is attempting to coordinate shall have begun the coordination process with [Insert Jurisdiction] within the request of two letters from [Insert Jurisdiction] seeking a first meeting.
(6) “NEPA” means the federal government’s National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, which created the Environmental Protection Agency and established coordination as “the continuing policy of the Federal Government.”
American Legislative Exchange Council
(7) “FLPMA” means the federal government’s Federal Land Policy & Management Act of 1976, which provided five criteria for implementing coordination
{Title, enacting clause, etc.}
Section 1. {Title} This ordinance shall be known as Local Coordination on Federal Regulations Ordinance
Section 2. {Declaration of public policy.} It is hereby declared to be the public policy of [Insert Jurisdiction] coordination is a legal definition as defined by NEPA & FLPMA, which allows any local government & NGO to invoke coordination with the Federal Regulations
Section 3. Demand. [Insert Jurisdiction] shall demand by any lawful means that the federal government coordinate in good faith with [Insert Jurisdiction] before the federal government implements, enforces, expands or extends the federal regulation, rule, plan or policy within the [Insert Jurisdiction]’s jurisdictional boundaries. If necessary, no more than sixty (60) days shall have passed between the first and second letter being sent by [Insert Jurisdiction] requesting the first meeting to begin coordination. This subsection is mandatory unless [Insert Jurisdiction]’s elected public body shall vote not to demand coordination at a duly noticed public hearing.
Section 4. {Litigation} If the federal government fails to coordinate in good faith with [Insert Jurisdiction] after demand has been made, [Insert Jurisdiction] shall authorize appropriate litigation to enforce its coordination rights and powers. This subsection is mandatory unless [Insert Jurisdiction]’s elected public body shall vote not to authorize such litigation at a duly noticed public hearing.
Section 5. {Taxpayer Standing} Taxpayer Standing. Any taxpayer residing or doing business within [Insert Jurisdiction] shall have standing to enforce the obligations created by this ordinance. If [Insert Jurisdiction] fails to discharge its obligations under this ordinance within sixty (60) days, the taxpayer must serve each member of [Insert Jurisdiction] with a written demand that [Insert Jurisdiction] comply with this ordinance. To be effective, the written demand must specify the federal and local laws, regulations, plans or policies with which coordination ought to be sought by [Insert Jurisdiction]. If [Insert Jurisdiction] does not comply with the taxpayer’s written demand, the taxpayer may file a special action in state court against [Insert Jurisdiction], after first exhausting any administrative remedy.
I'm very pleased that you are on the JFAC and H&W committees! I know you bring common sense and integrity in all you work on. Idaho's senators and legislators must never accept the BLM decision on Lava Ridge because these federal agents have no right to decide to bring their green energy (fake climate change agenda) into Idaho. The BLM is loyal to its corporate partners and that is a major red flag. They are also destroying our wild horse herds in the western states which is a direct violation of their own "Free Roaming Wild Horse and Burros Act of 1989". Again, the BLM is serving another agenda regarding our iconic horses and killing dozens in the process.
Has there been any studies done on the actual carbon footprint one windmill produces from its manufacturing, transportation of its components, installation of its concrete base, oil based lubricants used and other things we don’t even know about? During one of these eyesore’s lifetime will it even offset its carbon footprint by producing enough “clean “ energy to justify its expense and disruption of the environment?

P.S. We’re hoping to get some much-needed health freedom legislation passed this year (see https://eolson47.substack.com/p/health-freedom-and-other-solutions for ideas).

As Military this post to provide what haas happened after the Kennedy Assassination: literally,
many knew the Warren report was a "bag job" and the need for control of people expanded, partly to guide in deception of the coming events -
The operation is explained below:
1965 - Ghosts in the Machine: by U.S. Army-psyop-division known as “mindwar”
https://vigilantcitizen.com... the-u-s-armys-psyop-division/
The ultimate goal of MindWar is to make people willingly do what they’re supposed to do,
while not realizing they’ve been pushed towards that decision at every step of the way.
“For the mind to believe in its own decisions, it must feel that it made those decisions without
coercion. Coercive measures used by the operative, consequently, must not be
detectable by ordinary means. There is no need to resort to mind-weakening drugs such as
those explored by the CIA; in fact the exposure of a single such method would do
unacceptable damage to MindWar’s reputation for truth.”
Authors NOTE: Reputation for truth is directly relative to ( Whose Truth ? )
