12 Idaho House Democrats key to passing Idaho budget bills

The Idaho House of Representative is seen in session on March 14, 2022, at the Statehouse in Boise, Idaho. It appears it's going to take a dozen House Democrats if Idaho is to hang on to more than a billion dollars in federal coronavirus relief money. A majority of the 58 House Republicans often vote against budget bills containing Idaho's share of the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act money, opting instead to send it to other states.
