One of my goals as Idaho's Senator is to provide opportunities for citizens to become more involved in the political process. My Podchat offers such an opportunity by inviting Idahoans to submit questions in advance for me to answer on my next Podchat program. Produced at least once a month, my Podchat is a radio-style program available through my podcast. Each installment is also available for download below.

I hope you will take a moment to submit your question by calling my Podchat Hotline at (208)639-9616, or by using the form below.

Subscribe to my podcast, which features a variety of audio content, such as my biweekly Washington Report, selected speeches I have made on the Senate Floor, and, of course, each installment of my Podchat.
