Make DHW EBT cards different than Child Support Cards
By doing this, Idahoans can easily tell if non-food items (such as cleaners, cosmetics, cigarettes, alcohol) are being purchased with EBT funds. This addresses the misperception of "tax payer" dollars going to the purchase of cigarettes and alcohol.

health and welfare rules
Currently, under the TAFI, temporary aid for families in Idaho, there are no rules in IDAPA to recoop overpayments to families unless there has been an intentional policy violation. So, if a benefits worker makes a mistake or fails to act on a reported change by a household, the household ends up with money that they should not have had. There is no mechanism to write or collect overpayments. Mistakes happen but the state should be able to get the money back just as it does with food stamps or AABD grants.

Fed-Funded State Public Health Employees: Work for 501c3, Not As State Employees=Save State $$
A majority of Idaho Division of Public Health's (state) employees are paid by federal dollars. Other states have 501c3 Public Health Institutes that get the federal dollars and do contract work for the states. This saves states money and improves efficiency. Smaller state government, more efficient workforce, no loss of services for Idahoans.

Stop Project Filter's support of Snake River Stampede
At this year's Snake River Stampede, I was surprised to see that Project Filter sponsored either the barrel racing or the calf roping events. Why the heck is Project Filer sponsoring an event with such a specialized fan base?
