Brad Little is a true leader for all of Idaho

| July 12, 2020 1:00 AM

Idaho Gov. Brad Little is a true leader. He understands his ultimate responsibility is the health and safety of all 1.79 million Idaho citizens.

He also understands the effectiveness of being proactive, to be ahead of the curve, to not wait until a crisis erupts. He is a patriot who knows individuals are sometimes asked to make some sacrifices for the common good, that a safety mask protects not only the wearer but the elderly, the vulnerable, all of us. I remember some years ago when we would be in a restaurant and someone would light up a cigarette and we would have to leave because my father-in-law had emphysema and could not breathe.

My father-in-law died before the Idaho Clean Indoor Air Law took effect in 2004. The citizens and responsible leaders in 2004 realized that a little sacrifice from all of us was necessary for the health of all of us. I support Gov. Little and all responsible leaders.
