The usual suspects from North Idaho voted to kill funding for the Idaho Commission for the Arts today: Barbieri, Cheatham, Dixon, McMillan, Mendive, Redman, Scott, Shepherd & Sims. The only North Idaho legislators who supported the $782,900 funding were Jordan, Malek (Marge Chadderdon subbing) and Troy. Only three senators voted against the funding on the Senate side, including Vick & Nuxoll from North Idaho districts. All this information came from Betsy Russell, Eye on Boise.
