And remember that our Declaration of Independence (2nd para) sets forth five "self-evident Truths" which are our Founding Principles: one of these Truths is that the purpose of government is to secure the Rights God gave us. https://publiushuldah.wordpress.com/2014/12/01/how-our-federal-constitution-secures-our-god-given-rights/

"Our job is to govern — to pass legislation that expands freedom and liberty for the people of Idaho and to stop legislation that constricts it."

Never in the history of governments has legislation ever expanded freedom and liberty. Legislation, by it's nature can only restrict freedom and liberty.

My rights come from God and liberty comes thru Jesus Christ not thru any governmental entity.

So, you think legislation only restricts? What about the laws that ended segregation or secured voting rights? Those didn’t restrict freedom, they kicked down barriers. And if your freedom only comes from above, why bother with any laws at all? Seems like you’re picking and choosing when government suits you and dismissing it when it doesn’t. Real freedom includes everyone, and sometimes, that requires laws to set things right.
