A note from the editor

You know, when we scheduled a Focus section on government for this week, the idea was that it would be a great time to summarize the session, since of course by now the Legislature would have adjourned sine die.
LOL. As if.
That said, there was still plenty to write about, ranging from our intrepid reporter Catie Clark’s Governor’s extraordinary second appearance direct to Idaho voters — flanked by all the living Idaho former governors (and I bet Cecil Andrus would have been there if we could) — explaining why he was vetoing the two bills the Legislature had passed that were intended to limit governors’ emergency powers. (Catie also wrote about what the two bills were and how they were different.)
