Idaho Democratic Party chairwoman Lauren Necochea will retain her leadership role after the party’s state central committee reelected her to the position on March 8.
Necochea, who served as the former assistant minority leader in the Idaho House, said in a press release from the party that this is a critical moment in history for Idaho and the nation.
“Idahoans are seeing the consequences of Republican leaders fully surrendering to Donald Trump, pushing school vouchers, handing out tax breaks to the wealthy, and catering to the most extreme elements of their party,” she said. “We warned about Project 2025 — and now even Trump’s own voters are realizing the damage. The tide is turning. Democrats are on the front lines fighting to protect public schools, defend fundamental freedoms, and ensure government works for everyday people, not just the powerful few.”
