View the 2011 Citizen Survey Results Here! View the New Legislative Newsletter Here! Friends and Neighbors: Thank you for your support this year. It has been a very difficult legislative session as ethics scandals once again rocked the legislature and nothing was accomplished to change the arrogant and entitled culture of state leaders. I have decided to seek reelection to the State Senate because I'm committed to fundamental ethics reform and to changing of the culture of the legislature. Idaho has some of the weakest ethics laws in the US and I've been working with colleagues since 2005 to try and change this dubious distinction This year I authored five bills in an attempt to fundamentally reform our ethics laws and end the entitled culture of the legislature. Again these bills were quashed by majority leadership. If District 17 allows me to return to the Idaho legislature I will again push for fundamental ethics reform to restore the trust of the people in their state government. I look forward to visiting many thousands of homes this election. It's always a pleasure visiting with the people that I represent and I look forward to it over the next six months.
