Rep. Matt Bundy

In recent weeks, the Idaho House of Representatives has been hard at work, passing several bills aimed at improving the lives of Idahoans across the state. While the specifics of each bill are different, their goals are the same: to enhance the wellbeing, safety, and prosperity of our communities.

We’ve focused on strengthening healthcare access and making sure education is more effective and available to everyone. By updating healthcare laws and investing in our schools, we’re making sure that no matter where you live in Idaho, you can get the care you need and your children can get a quality education.

Economic growth has been another key area. We’ve passed measures that support small businesses and ensure that our state’s policies are fair and promote job creation. We’re also committed to keeping our communities safe and have taken steps to support law enforcement and emergency services. In addition, we understand the importance of our natural resources and have passed legislation aimed at conserving our beautiful landscapes and environment.

These efforts in healthcare, education, economic development, community safety, and environmental conservation are all designed with you in mind. They’re about making sure that Idaho continues to be a wonderful place to live, work, and play.
