Issues
Campaign themes
2012
Gibbs's campaign website lists the following issues:[1]
- Our Local Economy
- Excerpt: "The local economy in District 32 is driven by the phosphate industry. We are blessed with huge phosphate ore reserves. I will continue to promote environmentally safe mining and production in our district."
- Our State Budget
- Excerpt: "We are fortunate in Idaho that the constitution requires that we pass a balanced budget. Because of this our credit rating remains strong and Idaho remains a great place to do business. I will continue to support Common Sense Solutions to the many challenges that face Idaho."
- Jobs and the Economy
- Excerpt: "We must work to attract new business to locate in Idaho. This can be done by keeping corporate income and property taxes in check. Most importantly we must continue to keep the businesses that are here competitive so that they can continue to provide good well paying jobs."
- Improving Education
- Excerpt: "Education funding will remain a challenge because of the increasing demand for our tax dollars. I will continue to work with teachers, local administrators, and school boards to provide the flexibility needed so that most decisions can be made on a local level."
- Transportation in Idaho
- Excerpt: "Almost all of the goods we produce must be moved to be consumed. Governor Otter is correct to identify transportation as a major issue. The need is clear, however, the question remains as to how to fund the increased spending among all users."
