    LEGISLATIVE BRANCH Bruneau Dunes Photo Courtesy: Mary Davis 138 IDAHO BLUE BOOK Legislative Branch The Idaho Legislature is responsible for translating the public will into public policy for the state, levying taxes, appropriating public funds, and overseeing the administration of state agencies. These responsibilities are carried out through the legislative process -- laws passed by elected representatives of the people, legislators. Since statehood in 1890, Idaho's legislators have enjoyed a rich and successful history of charting the state's growth. Much of that success can be attributed to the fact that Idaho's legislators are "citizen" legislators, not career politicians. They are farmers and ranchers, business men and women, lawyers, doctors, sales people, loggers, teachers. Elected for two-year terms and in session at the Capitol just three months each year, Idaho's citizen legislators are able to maintain close ties to their communities and a keen interest in the concerns of the electorate. The Legislature's Mission The Idaho Legislature is committed to carrying out its mission in a manner that inspires public trust and confi dence in elected government and the rule of law. The mission of the Legislature is to: • Preserve the checks and balances of state government by the independent exercise of legislative powers; • Adopt a system of laws that promote the health, education and well-being of Idaho's citizens; • Preserve the state's environment and ensure wise, productive use of the state's natural resources; • Carry out oversight responsibilities to enhance government accountability; and • Raise revenues and appropriate monies that support necessary government services.

Co-Chairman Schaefer called the meeting to order at 8:40 Matt Freeman spoke and reviewed the legal requirements for the committee. Anne Heileman, Director of the Division of Human Resources submitted her report December 1. The Governor will submit his recommendations prior to the 7th legislative day.

There was guidance given on the use of one-time and on-going salary savings to help with salary increases. Agencies were directed to focus the savings on groups with significant lag in salary such as nurses and Information Technology (IT) people.

  • 2512 – 1/10/2020 Former US Treasurer Rosie Rios Marcia
    2020: #2512 – 1/10/2020 Former U.S. Treasurer Rosie Rios Marcia Franklin talks with former U.S. Treasurer Rosie Rios about her mission to honor American women in history. Her efforts include the attempt to put a woman on U.S. Federal Reserve notes for the first time. After a public process, the Department of the Treasury chose Harriet Tubman to appear on the $20 bill. That project is now stalled, but Rios, who served in office from 2009-2016, has developed Notable Women, which allows users through virtual reality to superimpose an image of a famous woman in history onto a bill. Rios is also working on a women’s history curriculum in schools, and is spearheading a project to honor more women in history with statues in major cities around the country. #2511 - 1/03/2020 “The Feather Thief” Marcia Franklin talks with author Kirk Wallace Johnson about his book The Feather Thief: Beauty, Obsession, and the Natural History Heist of the Century. The book details Johnson’s investigation into a major theft of 300 rare bird skins from a British museum in 2009 by a 20- year-old American, Edward Rist. Rist then illegally sold the feathers into the arcane world of Victorian salmon fly-tyers. Johnson discusses why he felt it was important to write the book, and how the crime and other heists like it damage the field of natural history. He also shares his thoughts on the “feather thief,” whom he interviewed. The founder of The List Project to Resettle Iraqi Allies, Johnson worked in Fallujah, Iraq, for the U.S.
