  • 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.

  • Idaho's Ideal College Savings Program Ranked Among Nation's
    IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Nov. 10, 2020 CONTACT: Todd Dvorak l [email protected] | 208.340.6265 Idaho’s IDeal College Savings Program Ranked Among Nation’s Best Morningstar Praises IDeal 529 Plan, Elevates Rating to Bronze (Boise) – Morningstar Inc., a leading independent investment data and research firm, has upgraded its rating of IDeal – Idaho’s 529 College Savings Program, praising the program’s minimal fee structure and the board responsible for oversight. In its “Top 529 College Savings Plans of 2020” analysis, Morningstar elevated its analyst rating of IDeal from neutral to bronze. Idaho was one of five states upgraded to the Bronze category, according to the report. “This is terrific news for Idaho’s 529 plan and the work so many are doing to make this program successful for Idaho parents and their children,” said Julie Ellsworth, Idaho State Treasurer and Board Chair for the IDeal program. “Idaho’s constitutional officers work together on this board to make sound decisions that are focused on providing account holders with value and confidence in the investment they are making in the educational futures of their children,” Ellsworth said. “It should also be noted that IDeal’s tax deduction for individuals and the new employer tax credit offer Idaho families and businesses additional incentives that are among the best in the nation.” Chicago-based Morningstar started analyzing 529 plans eight years ago, but modified its methodology this year in a way that leveled the playing field by treating all plans equally. Previously, the evaluation process put less emphasis on the fees charged by advisor-sold plans.
