James E. Risch: “I appreciate your comment about the 6,000 work visas for Idahoans, but that is a drop in the bucket.”

I think it is incumbent upon us as we go forward to do that, and I commit to you that we will continue to pursue that.

The beauty of the Constitution of the United States is that the legislative branch is a co-equal branch of government to the executive branch, and you can actually do stuff.

As we celebrate 250 years of Independence, we must remember the sacrifices made to secure it and recommit ourselves to the ideals that have defined our great nation for centuries: freedom, faith, hard work, equality, and the Rule of Law.

For whatever reason the second branch of government is reluctant to anger other countries or look at the wrath of other countries, and that is just flat wrong.
