    The Newsletter of the Palouse Prairie Foundation P.O. Box 8952. Moscow, ID 83843 http://www.palouseprairie.org/ Vol. III No. 1 March 2010 The regular meeting date for the Palouse Prairie Foundation is the 1st Thursday of each month. We are planning to have a business meeting in April and a presentation in May. The presentation is still in the planning stages. Check the PPF website for updates and locations. On May 4, 2010, Palouse Prairie Foundation will receive 10% of all sales at HyperSpud Sports (at Friendship Square in Moscow) that day. Support a local business and the Palouse Prairie Foundation by shopping at HyperSpud Sports the first Tuesday in May. PPF memberships Thank you for your ongoing support of the Palouse Prairie Foundation (PPF). It’s time again to send in membership dues to keep the PPF working on your behalf. As you know, the Palouse Prairie once covered a vast area in eastern Washington and northwestern Idaho, but now it covers less than 1% of its original area and is considered an endangered ecosystem. Nevertheless, the remnant prairie still provides critical habitat for the Giant Palouse Earthworm, pollinators, birds and other critters, and every year it continues to rejuvenate us with its rich annual displays of flowers. PPF is a non-profit organization that relies on membership dues to carry out its mission. This includes: • Raising public awareness about issues threatening the Palouse Prairie and opportunities to conserve it • Developing educational materials and curricula for prairie conservation • Supporting

  • Legislative Branch
    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.
