2015 Legislative Scorecard 2009 Levels 2015 Legislative Summary This legislative scorecard is meant to be a resource for the Greater Idaho Falls business community. It is a reflection of the Chamber’s priorities and how they were addressed during the 2015 Idaho Legislative Session. The scorecard does not reflect the complexity of every issue that is addressed. The Chamber was pleased with the 7.4% increase in education funding, which is 2/3 of the way back to 2015 Legislative Scorecard 2009 levels. Advocate ● Educate ● Network The Legislators support for Professional Technical Education programs and education in general was tre- mendous this session. The Chamber was disappointed in the lack of legislation for local option taxing authority and Medicaid reform. The Chamber also felt that the Legislature missed an opportunity to explore the benefits that the creation of a State Gaming Commission could have provided, but pleased that a bill was introduced. The Chamber is concerned with the state’s non-compliance with the federally mandated REAL ID ACT and the potential impact on business. The Chamber is relieved that the State was granted an extension to comply with the act. The Chamber would have liked to have seen increased funding for the Idaho Commission on Aging. The continued support for the Behavioral Health Crisis Center was applauded. While steps were taken to provide increased funding for transportation infrastructure maintenance, the Chamber would have liked to have seen a more significant investment made to close the $260M funding gap.

Engage the legislature in support of the Governor’s recommendation for an INL/BSU collaboration in cybersecurity that includes the participation of ISU and UI through the IRON network. Work to ensure state, regional, and local support for the Department of Energy’s new GAIN initiative which is led by INL and aimed at advancing the deployment of advanced nuclear reactors. The economic impact of these missions is crucial for Idaho’s economy, now and into the future. • Support legislation which reduces barriers and encourages additional and more substantive electrical generation and transmission capacity across the state. Increased capacity is critical to the testing and operating of commercial small modular reactors in Eastern Idaho.
