We sent an email ahead of time with all our suggested topics. Just wanted to put them in the hopper here, in case useful. (We were pleased to know many were on our legislators radar, and look forward to seeing them brought up next session.)

Suggested Town Hall Topics:

- Ivermectin: Resolve S1211 Ivermectin bill - currently, most pharmacies cannot distribute. Details: https://tinyurl.com/4um7mdk6

- Illegal Immigration: Pass anti-illegal immigration laws with teeth. Work with immigration lawyers and law enforcement to pass meaningful legislation. Include e-Verify and other bills from last session that didn't get floor votes (improve as needed). See https://tinyurl.com/39ru5haj

- Flags: Ensure the flag bills from 2025 are enforceable. H0096, H0041.

*** We like the idea of creating a blanket bill requiring elected officials to enforce laws or be subject to penalties such as withholding tax disbursements or private rights of action.

- Welfare: Reduce welfare rolls. Able-bodied must work or show proof of seeking work. Limit time on welfare and require re-enrollment every year. No benefits of any kind to illegals. Some good bills were proposed in 2025, but did not see light of day. S1039, H0083

- Weather Engineering: Stop weather engineering in all its forms (including cloud seeding). See https://tinyurl.com/5ddchbuy (We respectfully disagree that "transparency" is the key to solving the problem. Such transparency already exists for the most part.)

- mRNA Shots: Defund all mRNA shots in public health clinics and other taxpayer supported locations. See https://tinyurl.com/48v5vdry

- Health Freedom: Implement health freedom issues that haven't been addressed already (including a patient bill of rights S1022). See https://tinyurl.com/3548v623

- Election Integrity: Ensure election integrity. See https://tinyurl.com/39ru5haj

- Spending: Reduce Idaho government spending (maintenance as well as add-on budgets). CUT maintenance budgets FIRST before considering any additional moneys. Go line by line and fund ONLY proper role of government activities. This includes education and every other department.

- Government Funding: Reduce reliance on federal grants and funding. All such funding comes with strings attached and often involves state taxpayers left holding the bag when federal budgets are cut. 

- Special Interests: Stop all bills that favor special interests: Big Ag, Big Pharma, Big Chemical, Big Hospital, Big Tech. These entities must stand on their own. Not be propped up by the taxpayers.

Thank you for the town hall. Well moderated, and especially enjoyed hearing from legislators whose bills we read during the 2025 session. Thanks to all who participated (except a few trolls who interrupted the chat).
