Sen. Zito covers the first day of the legislature. Read about her insights into the effects that the first-day’s speech by Idaho Governor Brad Little will have on her legislative decisions, links that citizens can use to stay engaged during the legislative session, and how to contact her during the session.

  • The Governor’s State of the State address typically is a wish list of how he wants to spend your money and his agenda.

    • The legislature’s job is to create and pass a budget.

    • The Governor’s job is to execute the people's will according to the legislation and budget the House and Senate pass.
