UPDATE: The proposal to repeal Medicaid Expansion was pulled from the agenda this morning, possibly because they didn't have the votes to move it forward. We expect another attempt next week. Stay tuned.

“There were three attempts by Idaho legislators to weaken or dismantle the citizen initiative system in 2025.” We must stay vigilant and protect Idaho’s ballot-initiative process. www.idahostatejournal.com/news/local/n...

Huge turnout in Idaho Falls for the Save Our Schools town hall tour! “Hundreds of community members, teachers, and advocates gathered at the Waterfront on Tuesday afternoon to hear concerns from stakeholders about public funds being used for private schools.” www.eastidahonews.com/2025/07/publ...

A Utah judge has ruled that Utah’s $100 million school voucher program violates the state’s constitution: "The Program is not ‘open to all children of the state.’” www.sltrib.com/news/educati...

This actually happened: A few weeks after passing a $50 million school-voucher bill for Idaho's private-school families, Idaho lawmakers slashed $30 million in support for public-school families. Remember: 94% of Idaho students attend public schools. www.propublica.org/article/idah...

Shocking but not surprising: A public records request has revealed that over 1,000 Idahoans emailed the House Rev & Tax committee about HB 93--Wendy Horman's school-voucher bill. 94% of the emails opposed the bill while just 6% were in favor. #idpol www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/e...

The Greater Idaho Falls Chamber of Commerce is publicly opposing the repeal of Medicaid Expansion, saying it would "devastate our local economy, workforce and healthcare system." #idpol www.postregister.com/news/local/i...

An underappreciated danger in school voucher schemes is families may take on new debt—to private schools or other vendors—beyond what vouchers cover. HS degree grantors and for-profit microschools can hike tuition and all but force families to take out top-off loans to complete.

“Idaho’s grass-roots democracy in the form of citizen-led initiatives could be ‘squashed’ if certain legislators have their way, the co-founder of a political group warned...” Reclaim Idaho’s Luke Mayville spoke Monday at a community forum in Twin Falls. #idpol magicvalley.com/news/local/g...

Testimony AGAINST Medicaid Expansion repeal outnumbered testimony in favor by a margin of 25 to 1. The committee still approved the repeal bill 8-7. The swing vote was cast by Rep. Tanya Burgoyne, whose Pocatello district approved Medicaid Expansion with 64% of the vote. Who does she represent?

This is the overflow room for today’s hearing on Medicaid Expansion repeal (House Bill 138). The main room is jam-packed. Idahoans want their healthcare protected, not taken away. #idpol

TOMORROW—Public hearings are scheduled for two very dangerous bills: Medicaid Expansion Repeal (HB 138) in the morning and School Vouchers (HB 93) in the afternoon. You can sign up to testify at www.mobilize.us/reclaimidaho/

This is pure cynicism and cruelty from Representative Redman. He's selling his bill as a "reform" of Medicaid Expansion when he knows the goal is to eliminate the program completely, ripping away healthcare from 90,000 Idahoans. #idpol www.idahostatesman.com/opinion/read...

"It comes across like some lawmakers are thinking citizens aren’t intelligent enough to think for themselves in coming up with these initiatives." #idpol www.postregister.com/opinion/edit...

Idaho legislators are actively trying to rip away healthcare from 90K Idahoans. The repeal of Medicaid Expansion will ruin lives. It will drive up debt & dramatically increase chronic illness. Legislators are willing to do it anyway, all in the name of a phony, made-up narrative about the budget.

"This legislation does not give parents in Butte County — or most other rural Idaho counties — any more choices than they already have. What it does do is subsidize (and prioritize) education for folks who already send their kids to private schools..." www.idahostatesman.com/opinion/read...

“We’ll pull the rug out from under them later.” That’s what school-voucher advocate Ryan Spoon said a few weeks ago, admitting openly that the end game is to defund our public schools. Today Spoon made his case for vouchers at a Freedom Foundation event at the Capitol. #idpol
