Idaho U.S. Senator Jim Risch is throwing his support behind Speaker Scott Bedke and he officially endorses Bedke to be Idaho’s next Lieutenant Governor.
Risch, a former Governor and Lt. Governor, with Bedke worked together in 2006 to pass a property tax cut of $260 million, which was the largest in Idaho history.
Senator Risch said in a press release, Scott Bedke is the clear conservative voice needed to be Idaho’s next Lieutenant Governor.
Speaker Scott Bedke says he and Senator Risch have worked together on many policies that put Idahoans first and he is grateful to have his vote of confidence to be Idaho’s next Lieutenant Governor.
