Tonight’s “Idaho Reports” reports on the fifth week of this year’s legislative session, from local control issues to water to words from the governor. Co-host Melissa Davlin interviews Sen. Todd Lakey on public defense reform and what’s next; and Davlin and producer Seth Ogilvie report on a Treasure Valley water fight that could have ripples affecting water law throughout the state.

Kimberlee Kruesi of the Associated Press joins the pundits panel, along with me, Jim Weatherby, co-host Aaron Kunz and Davlin, to talk legislative developments, campaign finance and more. The show airs at 8 tonight; after it airs, you can watch it here online any time. It also re-airs Sunday at 10:30 a.m. Mountain time, 9:30 Pacific.
