  • 2010 Year in Review
    2010 Year in Review Best of all he loved the Fall. The leaves yellow on the cottonwoods. Leaves floating on the trout streams and above the hills, the high blue windless skies… Now he will be a part of them forever. ~ Ernest Hemingway, Idaho, 1939 in a eulogy for a friend The Council of State Governments-WEST About CSG-WEST The Council of State Governments-WEST (CSG-WEST) is a nonprofit and nonpartisan organization that serves western state legislatures. Legislators and key legislative staff come together to share good ideas across state borders. Meetings and policy events offer lawmakers an opportunity to network with each other and to work with other elected leaders in the West on common policy goals. CSG-WEST and its sister region in the South partner with states on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border to work on key issues affecting the security and prosperity of the border region. Associate members from the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia as well as the Pacific islands of American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and Guam are also valued participants in CSG-WEST.

    LEGISLATIVE BRANCH Capitol Rotunda Photo Courtesy: inet-success.com 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 Idaho Legislature is committed to carrying out its mission in a manner that inspires public trust and confidence 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. The Chambers The Idaho State Capitol, following the same classical style of architecture as our nation's Capitol, was started in 1905 and the central portion was finished in 1911.
