Mark Sauter is your voice in Boise

I am backing Mark Sauter for House Seat IA.  I’ve known Mark since 2012.  Mark is a retired fire chief.  He has also worked as a paramedic.  He was even tapped by his city council to be a “stand-in” city manager for a while.  They obviously recognized his leadership capabilities. 

In retirement, Mark worked part-time for Sagle Fire District as a fire prevention specialist.  When the Selkirk Fire and Rescue agreement was established, Mark continued to work in that role only in a much larger area.  He typically put in many more hours each week than he was paid for helping many rural residents make their properties fire safe.   

 As our representative Mark has stood up against book banning at our libraries, has fought for better school funding, especially the long-term issue of facility repair and replacement. He has voted to protect women’s health.  He understands that the key to a better Idaho is education for a more prepared workforce.  Under his watch, 300 local kids have received Launch scholarships.  And Mark has worked to keep our property taxes from skyrocketing. 

Mark stands up for what he believes and will not be intimidated by “special interests”.  He meets with his constituents on a regular basis but is also willing to take your phone call to discuss any issue you might have.  Please join me in re-electing Mark Sauter for House Seat 1A.
