Judy Boyle Announces For Idaho Legislative Seat
March 12, 2008
Midvale resident, Judy Boyle, announces she will seek election for the District 9 Idaho House of Representatives seat B. Boyle was the first choice of the District 9 precinct committeemen in August when Clete Edmunson resigned. “It is a citizen’s responsibility to be involved as our American form of government is not a spectator sport. I believe I have the background and experience to properly represent the citizens of District 9 and would be honored to be your Representative for seat B,” said Judy.
Judy has been involved in Idaho politics for over thirty years. She worked for Congressman Helen Chenoweth Hage as Helen’s Director of Natural Resources. Boyle stated, “Working for Helen was a tremendous learning experience and I share Helen’s conservative principles of corralling government to its proper role. Limited government is good government, which creates less rules, paperwork, bureaucracy and taxes while protecting personal freedom and private property as envisioned by America’s Founding Fathers.”
Boyle represented District 9 for two sessions as substitute Idaho Senator. “It was a privilege to serve the citizens of District 9 in the Idaho Senate. I was able to defeat proposed laws which would have harmed agriculture and our district’s economy and amend others making them more rural friendly. It gave me the opportunity to advocate issues for our district. I made many lasting friendships in the Senate and House and I am still asked to help with proposed laws.”
“I’m proud of my work as a volunteer for the National Rifle Association (NRA) and helped pass many laws strengthening our Second Amendment Rights—from the first conceal carry law to the NRA Idaho license plate, and several this session. Locally, I serve on the Friends of the NRA fundraising committee. I believe the Second Amendment protects the entire Constitution,” stated Judy.
Boyle is a member of the NRA, R-CALF (Ranchers-Cattlemen Action Legal Fund), the Weiser River Cattlemen, Vice-President of the Valley-Adams County Farm Bureau, and Pacific Legal Foundation Idaho Advisory Committee chair. She is a former 4-H leader, March of Dimes volunteer, past President of St Luke’s Hospital Parent Support Group, and helped establish the Idaho Ronald McDonald House. Judy is currently working with the local sage grouse group to enhance the birds and protect the ranches they rely on.
Judy’s family includes Brian, Kara, and Tyler Boyle and Peggy Boyle of Midvale where all are involved in raising beef cattle and quarter horses. Judy is also a freelance writer.
