Good for you, Sen. Lenney! Ethnic based commissions and subsidies have no business in America.

Our Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." -- https://www.ushistory.org/documents/pledge.htm

Not liberty and justice for some. Not special handouts or commissions for some.

DEFUND the Hispanic Commission and any other special interest commissions immediately. It'll take legislation to completely dissolve them, but at least we can cut off their wasteful funding.

Per Grok, ai:

The Idaho Commission on Hispanic Affairs was established by Senate Bill 1171 (1987), enacted as Chapter 163 of the 1987 Idaho Session Laws, codified in Idaho Code Title 67, Chapter 72 (§§ 67-7201 et seq.).

Per Grok, Idaho also has...

Your comments are without factual data. You have over stated the issue to what end?

I agree, you deserve money for your ancestor's suffering. It's surely what they wanted for you
