Karen Matthee will listen to the voters

| August 25, 2024 1:00 AM

I support Karen Matthee for Idaho State Representative, Seat A, District 1. She is passionate about the children of Idaho, and Karen listens to the voters.

Karen knows the children are our future. She wants to ensure their education by supporting public schools and libraries. Karen wants public schools to be properly funded, to have safe infrastructure and retain qualified teachers. She supports a permanent fund for public schools. A fund created by reviewing and revising our outdated sales tax exemptions, some of which have not been updated since the 1960s. 

Karen is also a passionate supporter of our libraries. She rejects HB 710 which places an unnecessary financial burden on our libraries, restricts access to library books and materials, and has caused some Idaho libraries to prohibit minors. She organized a well-attended protest of HB 710 at our Sandpoint Library. 

Karen listens. Karen spends several hours a week going door to door to listen to the voters. She does so to find out the wants and needs of the citizens of District 1. 

I will vote for Karen Matthee this Nov. 5, 2024. I hope you join me.
