We’ve been watching the bills from both the inside and the outside. We’ve watched what’s happening in various committees with chairpersons holding up good legislation while the bad bills sail on — all to benefit donors and lobbyists.

Look at the sunshine reports, folks: https://sunshine.voteidaho.gov/public/cf/publiccandidate.

As taxpayers, we feel outraged and helpless. We can only imagine what you are going through, Sen. Glenneda Z, and we applaud your courage and fortitude.

Perhaps it’s time you ran for Governor! At least then you could veto the never-ending Idaho spending bills into oblivion and propose budgets that reflect both sanity and reality.

If anyone watches any of the floor actions and committee meetings, one can gain a sense of this. I am just disgusted and angry that there are legislators that have such an ego to affect the whole of the state. I just wish more people would see it and be not okay with this and replace them at the ballot box. Thank you for sharing more of the behind-the-scenes childish games.

I agree the legislative committees have slowed down the process due to chairpersons and committee leadership holding up bills for some reason. All bills should be given the chance to be heard on the floor and voted on - period. I would also like to see corporate and NGO lobbyists banned from interfering with the hearing process. Only individual residents should be allowed to participate in hearings.

Sounds like the rules need to be changed. But we all know that won’t happen.

Glenneda,When one person gets to decide legislation ,it is tyranny and NOT A REPRESENTATIVE FORM OF GOVERNMENT PROMISED US BY THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES [article 4,section 4]. PERIOD . THE RULES NEED TO BE ADDRESSED ,NOW!
