As Your Next Senator
May 7th, 2008Our current economic state did not happen over night, but is the outcome of many issues; government’s mismanagement of taxpayers’ trust. Our leaders need to be accountable for their paralysis of decision making in Washington D.C.
As your next Senator, Richard Phenneger seeks to eliminate Ear Marks/Pork Barrel and add a line item veto to curb wasteful government spending. He recognizes the need to create more opportunities
...Betrayal of our Commitment to our National Guard and Veterans
May 7th, 2008Across the State of Idaho our returning soldiers are telling what is happening to them when they return home from the war. It is a shocking story.
