“Idaho is now 50th in the nation in family income and 50th in school funding. We need to change our strategy – now. I believe the first step is serious investment in our education system, starting with implementation of the reforms recommended by the Governor’s Task Force on Education.”
(Ballotpedia campaign themes) “Ilana is focused on making Idaho a magnet for strong businesses and good jobs. To succeed, we must train a workforce with 21st century skills and continue to listen to the needs of Idaho businesses. Ilana regularly meets with businesspeople – large and small – to ensure she’s helping to facilitate their success.”
(Ballotpedia campaign themes) “Idaho’s rivers, mountains, forests and wildlife make this a unique and extraordinary place in which to live, camp, hike, raft, fish, hunt and recreate. Ilana will always fight to protect our wilderness, clean air and water, and access to open spaces.”
