in the Idaho house/senate. They've been taking away the ability of people and cities to control regulation locally by moving those rights to the state level. The last 15 years or so has gotten noticeably worse.

This year, they seem to be going after the Governor's ability to respond quickly to emerging events because of his actions last year regarding Covid.

March/April and end of session can't get here soon enough.
