Budgeting In Idaho with Lauren Necochea

Lauren Necochea is the leader of the Idaho Democratic Party and came in to talk about budgeting. Idaho finds itself in a precarious position having cut roughly 450 million dollars in taxes during the 2025 legislative session but now is having to pull back on budgets for most things, including education. Lauren came in to discuss how and why she feels we’re in this position. Enjoy!
