Here’s the number: 208-972-8520

You know what to do

Senator warns of national security risks after Elon Musk's DOGE granted 'full access' to sensitive Treasury systems | TechCrunch U.S. senator says Musk's access to Treasury systems represents a "national security risk."

The tariffs/trade war may be a distraction:

Great starter pack here for Idahoans

What really happened after California raised its minimum wage to $20 for fast food workers What would happen to the fast food industry if it had to pay its workers something closer to a living wage?

1. In April 2024, California raised the minimum wage for fast food chains to $20/hour

The industry claimed it would be devastating & require significant job cuts and prices increases

Here is what really happened: workers got a raise, prices went modestly, and the industry continued to add jobs
