About the English Language Thing on the Ballot

By: Brian Lenney

HJR6 is a bill I sponsored in the Senate to make English is the official language of the state of Idaho by putting it in our state constitution. But it’s already in statute so why the bill?

For starters, my only complaint about HJR6 is that, if it passes, it took 19 years to put the 2007 statute where a future legislature can’t gut it.

Agencies already ignore the statute.

Subsection (5) sends non-English printing and translation money back to the general fund and makes agencies report it to the controller, and Health and Welfare and the schools keep spending it anyway. So, why put it in the constitution? Because an agency can shrug off a statute. But it can’t shrug off the constitution when its budget’s on the line.

Besides, the current exceptions are wide enough to drive a truck through. “Public health and safety needs” covers whatever a bureaucrat wants it to cover. Some of those exceptions go away if this passes, and that’s the point. The first to die is the corporate one, non-English government work for “tourism and economic development, including the hosting of international events.” If the Chamber wants international events, it can pay its own translators.

What stays is the federal carve-out: “except as required by federal law.” ESL, Voting Rights Act ballots and court interpreters are untouched. So anyone claiming kids or defendants get abandoned is fear-mongering, and they haven’t read (or, are lying about) the actual words on the ballot.

Every wave of immigrants before this one learned English, and America was stronger for it. Assimilation is the most generous thing a country can offer a newcomer, because it’s a ticket to full membership. Printing everything in six languages tells people they never have to join.

So the message to everyone who comes here, legal or not, is this: you’re welcome to become one of us, and that starts with English. Teddy Roosevelt said as much in 1919:

“We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language.”

Thirty states have made English official, and the President signed an executive order declaring it the national language in 2025.

Vote YES on HJR6.

Cheers,
Brian

Hiline Road Improvement Project Nears Completion, Intersection Closures Scheduled

(City of Pocatello Press Release, October 28, 2026)

The City of Pocatello’s Hiline Road and Signalization Improvement Project is nearing completion, with temporary intersection closures scheduled through mid-November.

The north and south sides of the intersection at Hiline Road, Pearl Street, and El Rancho Boulevard are currently closed. Beginning Monday, November 2, the entire intersection will be closed for final roadway preparation and paving. Motorists should follow posted detours and expect delays. Pedestrian access will remain available throughout construction.

The project includes replacing the four-way stop with a traffic signal, adding turn lanes, widening portions of Hiline Road, improving storm drainage, and upgrading sidewalks and pedestrian ramps. These improvements will enhance safety, accessibility, and traffic flow.

Project design costs totaled approximately $164,000, funded through a combination of City funds, American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding, and grants. The City contributed approximately $14,000, with ARPA and grant funds covering the remaining $150,000. Construction is fully funded by a $2 million Strategic Initiatives Grant awarded by the Idaho Transportation Department through its Local Transportation Grant Program, requiring no local funding match.

The roadway is expected to reopen mid-November, although some additional work may continue after traffic access is restored. The City of Pocatello appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation as crews complete the final stages of construction.

AG Labrador Delivers $664M Consumer Protection Settlement with Snap Finance

(Attorney General’s Office Press Release, October 28, 2026)

BOISE, ID —  Attorney General Raúl Labrador announced a settlement and an Assurance of Voluntary Compliance today with 16 other attorneys general in a nearly $665 million settlement with Snap Finance. As part of the settlement, Snap Finance will automatically cancel $3.4 million in lease payments owed by 1,846 Idahoans who entered into lease-to-own agreements from 2017-2022. Those Idahoans will now be able to keep and own their merchandise with no further payments.

“Snap Finance deceived their customers with misleading business practices, expensive long-term leases, and confusing contract terms,” said Attorney General Labrador. “This settlement gets money directly back to the people harmed and puts Snap Finance on a path for compliance with consumer laws across the country.”

Snap Finance (“Snap”) is a consumer financial services company that offers a lease-to-own (or “LTO”) agreement through merchant partners rather than through its own brick-and-mortar stores like traditional rent-to-own stores. Snap’s LTO product is often one of multiple purchasing options offered by a single merchant. When a customer selects the Snap LTO option, Snap purchases the merchandise from the merchant, Snap takes the title or owns the merchandise, and then Snap leases it to the customer until the customer pays off the full cost of the lease under the agreement.

AG Labrador’s Consumer Protection Division investigated Snap’s alleged violations of the Idaho Consumer Protection Act and found that Snap used misleading disclosures about the nature of their leasing arrangements; Snap did not allow customers to view the full terms of their contracts; customers experienced extreme communication issues when they were trying to return products; and Snap’s payment terms were confusing to customers.

For example, the states asserted that some customers thought they were entering into agreements with short pay-back windows of 100 days or fewer but instead were entered into long-term contracts that ended up being more expensive. Customers were misled that leasing a product and making on-time payments could increase their credit score; but that was not the case. The states investigated potential bad debt collection practices and Snap’s potentially deceptive process about returning products and terminating leases.

Snap cooperated with the settling states’ investigation and has agreed to the following business practice changes to address the states’ concerns:

  • Advertising restrictions: Snap has agreed to not use misleading slogans such as “cash payoff,” “same as cash,” and “no additional fees required,” that potentially hid the true cost of the lease a customer was agreeing to.
  • Disclosure and transparency: Snap must ensure that customers are shown the full terms and cost of a lease in accordance with state law before the lease can be signed.
  • Servicing protections: Today’s settlement makes it clear when Snap must repair or replace property that a customer leases and ensures Snap will do so. Additionally, Snap is prohibited from threatening seizure of a product for non-payment of a lease when it has no intent to do so.
  • Disclosures about credit ratings: Snap’s is prohibited from misrepresenting that applying for a lease or utilizing Snap’s LTO product will help customers increase their credit score.
  • Lease termination and surrender: Snap is required to provide clear disclosure of the right to terminate a lease, and Snap is prohibited from interfering with that right. Additionally, the settlement requires practical ways for a customer to return property when terminating a lease while pausing payment accrual when termination requests are processed.
  • Merchant training and Compliance: Snap must meet certain initial and ongoing training requirements and provide annual compliance reports for three years.

The total lease forgiveness on behalf of 303,223 consumers in all of today’s settling states is $662,102,518. Snap is also paying $2,750,000 directly to the states.

(White House Press Release, October 28, 2026)

Yesterday in Corpus Christi, Texas, President Donald J. Trump announced the arrival of the first million barrels of oil secured by the Trump Administration as part of the President’s historic Venezuela oil deal—with all oil coming into America at no cost to the United States or the American taxpayer.

This first shipment of oil will be refined in the Lone Star State, supporting American jobs, and increasing domestic supply to lower Americans’ prices at the pump.

From Alaska to Texas, President Trump is unleashing America’s energy dominance—making the Western Hemisphere the energy capital of the world—and Americans will benefit as gasoline and diesel prices come plummeting down!

President Trump’s bold foreign policy is driving America First wins: this deal more than doubles our strategic reserves—delivering 65 billion barrels in total, dramatically bolsters our oil supply, and helps deliver lower gas prices for the American people—costing taxpayers nothing! No other President and no other Administration could deliver such historic results for the American people.

President Trump continues to secure major deals to unleash energy dominance and reverse the Democrats’ failed anti-energy and Green New Scam policies to cut energy costs for all Americans.

Don’t Let Energy Vampires Haunt Your Home

By

(Idaho Power News Brief, October 27, 2026)

Ghosts aren’t the only things haunting your home this Halloween. Energy vampires — electronics that draw power even when turned off — can quietly use energy.

Phantom load, also called standby power, is the electricity electronics use when they are turned off, but still plugged in. The average U.S. home has about 40 devices that use power this way. These can include computers, modems, coffee makers, video game consoles, and devices with digital displays.

While the energy use of a single device may seem small, these “energy vampires” can add up. In fact, they may account for 5 to 10% of a home’s annual electricity use.

Try these tips to reduce phantom load and save energy:

  • Turn on power-saving settings for computers, TVs, and video game consoles.
  • Unplug electronic devices that don’t require reprogramming or aren’t frequently used.
  • Choose ENERGY STAR® products. They use less power in standby mode.
  • Borrow a Kill A Watt™ meter from your local library. Use it to check how much power devices use in standby mode.
  • Plug several devices into a power strip so you can turn them off at once. A smart power strip can shut off power when devices are not in use.
  • Use smart plugs to control devices from your phone. Set a schedule so devices turn off when you do not need them.

Secretary Burgum Signs Order to Support American Ranchers, Expand Grazing & Cut Red Tape

(Department of the Interior Press Release, October 27, 2026)

WASHINGTON – In a significant move to bolster the nation’s livestock industry, Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum today signed a Secretary’s Order to expand grazing opportunities, improve the health of federal rangelands, and provide critical support for America’s ranchers. The order implements President Trump’s Executive Order on “Supporting America’s Ranchers” and takes aggressive steps to increase domestic meat production and lower costs for consumers.

“Under the leadership of President Trump, we are committed to restoring the promise of our working landscapes and supporting the hardworking American families who depend on them,” said Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum. “This order cuts through bureaucratic red tape to deliver certainty and flexibility for our nation’s ranchers. By promoting healthy rangelands and expanding grazing opportunities, we are strengthening our food supply, reinvigorating rural economies, and ensuring the legacy of American ranching continues for generations to come.”

The order directs bureaus within the Department of the Interior to prioritize the needs of the domestic livestock industry at a time when the national cattle herd is at a 75-year low. It formalizes the Rangeland Health Initiative to further identify and open additional lands for grazing, reinstate suspended grazing allotments, and use new technologies like super intelligence to eliminate the backlog of grazing permit renewals.

Key provisions of the order include:

  • Expanding Grazing Opportunities: Directing the Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Bureau of Reclamation to identify lands that can be made available for livestock grazing.
  • Streamlining Permitting: Requiring the renewal of grazing permits for the full 10-year term to provide ranchers with operational certainty and mandating the use of technology to expedite the approval process.
  • Improving Rangeland Health: Using well-managed grazing as a tool to reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires and control invasive grasses.
  • Increasing Transparency: Creating a public, department-wide map of lands available for grazing and streamlining the application process.
  • Protecting Livestock: Reviewing and reforming policies that unnecessarily limit the ability of ranchers to protect their livestock from predators.
  • Improving Coordination with the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service: Increasing communication and transparency between agencies to limit differences in management requirements.

The order establishes an agency lead for the initiative, sets forth a series of deadlines for bureaus to report progress and implement these changes swiftly, and expands the initiative to all Interior bureaus with grazing lands. This includes a 30-day deadline to identify new lands for potential grazing and a 60-day deadline for the Bureau of Land Management to present a plan to eliminate its permit renewal backlog.

Downtown Pocatello Improvements: Two Projects Complete, Two Moving Forward

(City of Pocatello Press Release, October 27, 2026)

Through continued investment in critical infrastructure, the City of Pocatello is enhancing the safety, accessibility, and long-term functionality of Historic Downtown. Current efforts include ongoing bridge and underpass construction, as well as the completion of pedestrian safety improvements. These projects demonstrate the City’s commitment to maintaining dependable infrastructure and creating a safer, more accessible environment for residents, businesses, and visitors.

Portneuf River Bridge Replacement Project on West Benton Street

Construction continues on the Portneuf River Bridge Replacement Project on West Benton Street, with another major milestone recently completed.

Construction crews have completed the concrete pour for the new bridge deck and removed the formwork from the abutments. Upcoming work includes installing sidewalks, curbs and gutters, and a new waterline, as well as constructing a concrete retaining wall to connect the bridge to the roadway. These improvements mark another step forward as crews continue making progress toward project completion.

Project Highlights:

  • Construction Progress: Bridge deck construction is advancing, bringing the project closer to substantial completion.
  • Funding: $2,268,437 awarded through the Leading Idaho Local Bridge Grant Program.
  • Anticipated Traffic Access: Mid-November 2026, weather and other unforeseen conditions permitting.

Center Street Underpass Project Reaches New Phase

Construction on the Center Street Underpass continues to progress as the City of Pocatello advances one of its most significant infrastructure improvement projects.

Crews have completed the installation of pile shoring to provide temporary structural support along the northeast and northwest sides of the underpass. Current construction activities include pouring concrete for the foundation footings and lower walls in these areas. Crane operations are also ongoing to support construction efforts.

The project includes several major improvements, such as rehabilitating the existing abutments, constructing new retaining walls, upgrading sidewalks, replacing the underpass fascia, and installing a pedestrian bridge along the west side of the underpass. Despite the complexities associated with construction beneath an active railroad and the need to coordinate closely with Union Pacific Railroad, work continues to advance steadily.

Upon completion, the project will enhance pedestrian safety and accessibility, improve drainage, and strengthen the long-term functionality and reliability of this vital downtown transportation corridor.

Project Highlights:

  • Pedestrian Access: Pedestrian access is currently maintained along the south side of the underpass
  • Construction Progress: Following the installation of the sidewalks and retaining walls, crews will replace the fascia on both sides of the underpass in preparation for installing the pedestrian bridge
  • Total Project Funding: $11,230,135.00
  • Funding Sources: Representative Mike Simpson secured $5.7 million in federal funding for the project, with the remaining funding provided through the Local Highway Technical Assistance Council. The City of Pocatello is providing a 7.34 percent local match
  • Anticipated Traffic Access: Traffic access is expected to be restored by the end of 2026, weather and other unforeseen conditions permitting.

“Projects such as the Center Street Underpass take a tremendous amount of coordination with players such as Union Pacific Railroad, utility companies, engineering firms, and state and federal funders. It’s important to remember that we’ve torn out and rebuilt significant portions of a massive public structure that’s over 80 years old that sits right next to and underneath a major rail line. When you undertake a project of this nature and in this location, you’re continuously grappling with issues you would have never expected. In spite of these difficulties, I’ve been thoroughly impressed with how our team has overcome issues and determined alternative ways to move forward. I’m equally impressed that the crews from Cannon Construction have worked tirelessly and steadily on the project for the last several months. In the end, we will have a completed underpass that should hold up for another 80 years. For years, this project has been kicked down the road and we felt it was necessary to get things completed once and for all. I know this has come with its share of inconvenience to the public. I very much appreciate the patience that has been exercised,” said Mayor Mark Dahlquist.

COMPLETED: Downtown Safety Improvement Project

The City of Pocatello successfully completed the Downtown Safety Improvement Project on July 17, 2026. The project encompassed North Main Street, North Arthur Avenue, and Flandro Drive, implementing targeted infrastructure enhancements to improve pedestrian safety, accessibility, and traffic conditions throughout the Downtown Community area.

Key improvements included the installation of curb extensions (bulb-outs) at designated intersections to increase pedestrian visibility and encourage reduced vehicle speeds. Additionally, new Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant curb ramps were installed to improve accessibility for individuals with disabilities. Collectively, these enhancements strengthen pedestrian connectivity, promote a safer and more accessible downtown environment, and support the needs of residents and visitors of all ages and abilities.

Project Highlights:

  • Project Status: Completed July 17, 2026.
  • Total Project Funding: $1.7 million through the Local Highway Safety Improvement Program
  • Local Contribution: The City of Pocatello provided a 7.34 percent local match

COMPLETED: Urban Forestry Improvements in Historic Downtown

This project included tree removal, pruning, and replanting promoting environmental sustainability, protecting infrastructure, and enhancing the overall quality of life for residents along the Downtown Community area.

Project Highlights:

  • Project Status: Completed late spring, 2026.
  • Total project funding: $1 million Urban and Community Forestry Grant awarded in 2023, along with an additional $795,000 in grant funding received in 2026. Tree work in downtown totaled $51,520
  • City of Pocatello local match: $0

These projects align with the City of Pocatello’s Comprehensive Plan 2040 vision of creating a more economically robust, connected, safe, and accessible community. They also support the goals outlined in the Downtown Development Plan by improving existing infrastructure, enhancing walkability, and encouraging continued investment in Historic Downtown. Additionally, these efforts contribute to the goals and strategies identified in the City’s Urban Forest Plan.
