Governor Dirk Kempthorne understood that a strong Idaho depends on the courage and commitment of the men and women who serve our state and nation in the armed forces. As commander-in-chief of the Idaho National Guard, he championed our service members through a period of historic transformation and sacrifice, always ensuring they had the support they deserved. It is fitting that this new readiness center bears his name as a lasting tribute to his leadership, his unwavering support for the Guard, and his enduring legacy of service to Idaho. kivitv.com/news/magic-valley…

This morning, common sense has won again! The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Little v. Hecox affirms that our female athletes are protected from men competing in women’s sports. I am proud that Idaho has led the nation in supporting generations of women and men who fought hard to uphold Title IX protections and keep girls and women safe.

One year ago today, Idaho’s firefighting community, and our entire state, was changed forever. The courage and sacrifice of Chief John Morrison, Chief Frank Harwood, and Engineer David Tysdal, has left a lasting impact on Idaho. Their legacy lives on through their loved ones, community, and the firefighters who continue to serve in their honor.

It's great to see @SecretaryWright back in Idaho to witness the nuclear achievements being boosted by the executive orders signed last May. Idaho has led U.S. nuclear innovation for decades and this momentum highlights our state's collaboration with @ENERGY & @INL as we drive America’s energy future.

Sports have long been seen as a way to bridge communities, cultures, and bring people together. It was an honor to join as @danawhite & @SecRubio signed an MOU to encourage sports diplomacy. UFC Freedom 250 was an unforgettable event and a testament to the power of sports!🇺🇸

I was honored to join @FLOTUS & @SecScottBessent in support of the new Fostering the Future initiative powered by Trump Accounts. This effort gives kids in foster care the same opportunity as every other child to begin building financial security and investing in their future.
First Lady Melania Trump announces an incredible initiative of dedicated savings and investment accounts for children in foster care. ❤️ "America can offer services, help, and protection, but real freedom means being able to make independent choices about your own future." - @FLOTUS
