Recently, the legislative District 1 delegation — Sen. Shawn Keough and Reps. Eric Anderson and George Eskridge — went far out of their (busy) way to support my wife, Britt’s Idaho Senate confirmation hearing for her position as a commissioner of the Idaho Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired.

Our representatives work together, are a highly respected team in the Legislature, and were both generous and kind to Britt and me during the process.

I felt proud to be represented by Shawn, Eric, and George, and they made all of us in North Idaho look good. Moreover, they made Britt (as well as other constituents) feel special, and there’s nothing much more important.
