  • 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.
