Idaho Democratic Party

From Aberdeen to Bonners Ferry — and every place in between — we’re organizing to build a better, fairer, and brighter future for all Idahoans.
HUGE NEWS: Idahoans will vote this November on restoring reproductive freedom across our state. The citizen-led ballot initiative has officially qualified for the ballot.
Hard to pave roads with tax breaks for the rich.
Doug Wilson really said Latter-day Saints shouldn’t hold public office and women shouldn’t have the right to vote. These are the people trying to gain power in Idaho
Happy 250th to the country we love and the future we’re fighting for. 🇺🇸
The Supreme Court has affirmed this simple truth: If you were born here, you are an American citizen. No president can change this fact.
When Idahoans call 911, help should come. But emergency medical providers across the state are warning they need more funding to keep up. Republicans like Cindy Carlson are letting anti-government ideology get in the way of lifesaving services.
Four years ago, Trump’s handpicked Supreme Court majority overturned Roe. That day, Idaho Democrats stood at the capitol to speak out against the abortion ban that would soon take effect here. We fought back then. We are still fighting now. And we won't stop until reproductive freedom is restored.
Don’t take our word for it. The Idaho GOP put it in writing. Repeal Medicaid expansion Roll back child labor protections Criminalize abortion without exceptions Undermine public education Impose ideological tests on schools and doctors That is their agenda
Today we celebrate Juneteenth in Idaho and across the country. Freedom came late for too many, and the fight for justice is still part of our story. We mark this day by remembering that history honestly, protecting civil rights, and working toward an Idaho where everyone can live freely and fully.
We all lose when politicians use fear to divide Idahoans, distract from their own failures, and hold onto power. HB 752 was part of that playbook, policing private lives instead of solving real problems. This ruling protects the privacy, dignity, and freedom every Idahoan deserves
Idaho already has the most outdated marijuana laws in the nation. Now Republican politicians want to lock them into the Constitution and take power away from voters.
Trump promised to lower costs, but Idaho families are paying $2,700 more as housing, groceries, gas, electricity, and health care keep getting more expensive.
Idaho families are getting squeezed while the people at the top keep getting breaks. Democrats like Nate Roberts are fighting to lower costs, cut the grocery tax, and make government work for working people again.
The Idaho GOP supermajority has gotten so out of touch that even Republican mayors are saying so.
Boise isn’t waiting for affordable housing to happen, it’s building it. Under Mayor Lauren McLean, nearly 600 new affordable homes have opened since 2020, with hundreds more on the way.
Imagine getting elected to represent a whole state and still voting like you’re trying to win employee of the month at Mar-a-Lago.
You do not get to preach “family values” while Idaho kids lose health coverage over red tape.
Idaho has always been about standing strong and living true. Pride is a celebration of that same courage. Happy Pride!
Idaho belongs to the people who live here, not billionaire insiders looking for their next land deal.
Today, we remember the Americans who never made it home. Their courage and sacrifice live on in the families who love them, the communities they shaped, and the country they served.
Big news out of Idaho: Ellie Gilbreath has won the Democratic primary for Congressional District 2. We’re ready to fight, organize, and win in November.
Idaho is ready for change. Kaylee Peterson has won the Democratic primary for Congressional District 1. Now, let’s bring this home in November.
Idaho Democrats have spoken: David Roth is our nominee for U.S. Senate. Let’s make history this November.
T’S OFFICIAL: Terri Pickens has won the Democratic primary for Governor of Idaho. On to November!
IDAHO! Today is Election Day, and polls are open until 8pm local time. From local races to picking the Democrats who will be on your ballot in November, NOW is the time to make your voice heard. Make your plan to vote at IdahoVotes.gov.
The American people shouldn’t pay for Trump’s self-dealing.
