Apr. 16--BOISE a From your property tax bill to your morning commute to your child's classroom, the 2006 legislative session made changes that will touch the lives of Idahoans.
And residents will have an opportunity next month to say if they like those changes a by voting in the May 23 primary election. Every seat in the Legislature is up for election.
The session saw funding for major upgrades on U.S. Highway 95 approved; starting school teacher salaries raised to $30,000; and sweeping reforms OK'd for the Medicaid program that provides health coverage for the poorest and disabled Idahoans.
