Solutions to reduce prescription costs for Idahoans

Some of the most life-saving medications remain out of reach for far too many working families and seniors. We must empower consumers, plans, providers and pharmacies to make informed, cost-effective and clinically appropriate decisions. As Senate Finance Committee Ranking Member, I joined Committee Chair Ron Wyden (D-Oregon) last month in releasing a bipartisan framework for legislative solutions to modernize and enhance federal prescription drug programs, with the goal of reducing drug costs for patients and taxpayers.

BCSD's April Certified Employee of the Month

Laura Nishek is Boundary County School District’s April Certified Employee of the Month. Anyone who has had the privilege of working with Mrs. Nishek, can speak to the professionalism and dedication she brings to her students and classroom. Currently, Mrs. Nishek teaches 4th grade at Mt Hall Elementary, but she hasn’t always taught 4th grade. In fact, Mrs. Nishek started at the high school where she taught Early Childhood Development and then spent a few years teaching at the middle school. When a position came open at Mt Hall, Mrs. Nishek thought she’d try her hand at teaching elementary students. Next year, Mrs. Nishek is taking on another teaching adventure and will be teaching kindergarten at Mt Hall.
