Issues

Campaign themes

2012

Agidius's campaign website listed the following issues:

• Education

Excerpt: "I believe schools are best managed at a local level with the parents of the students doing the managing. Healthy relationships between parents and teachers ultimately provide the best environment for learning wherein both parties support, understand and respect each other as a means to provide the best learning environment possible for the student."

• Government

Excerpt: "This may not be popular thinking but I would rather try and work together to find the issues 'we can' agree on, rather than fight about those things we will never come to terms on. We must be more productive and move forward past the gridlock of recent years and create a working environment that will benefit the State of Idaho."

• Natural Resources

Excerpt: "Idahoans enjoy a rich tradition based in Natural Resources. Latah and Benewah Counties are no exception to that, whether it is the rich Palouse wheat and legume fields, the timber logged from the mountains of north Idaho, the beautiful St. Joe River or the wild rice farms, we earn our living from the land. I believe it is our responsibility to safeguard these resources for future generations. To me, that doesn’t mean locking it up or locking us out. It means using the land and water wisely, keeping environmental risks to a minimum..."

• Taxes

Excerpt: "A necessary evil. They pay for the infrastructure of our lives, from roads to schools. They pay the salaries of those who make our lives safer and better, our firemen, law enforcement, and our teachers. Elected officials must guard against over- stepping or being led astray by programs that 'sound good.' Instead they must ask themselves if this is the role of government."
