My PROVEN conservative voting Record
SENATOR LENNEY's 2023 VOTING Record:
Safeguarded Idaho’s youth by ensuring libraries are free of pornography...
I took a stand to protect Idaho's youth by cleaning up our public libraries and keeping porn AWAY from children. It's about maintaining a wholesome environment where kids can learn without exposure to harmful material. (H314a)
Defended Idaho farmlands from Chinese landgrabs...
I proudly took a definitive stand against foreign, particularly Chinese, encroachment on our Idaho farmlands. This was a bold affirmation of our commitment to national security and economic autonomy, ensuring Idaho's rich agricultural heritage is preserved for future American generations. It's a clear message that our land is not for sale to foreign powers. (H173)
Stood firm against woke indoctrination in Idaho education...
As a member of the Senate Education Committee, I’ve been a bulldog in the fight against the woke mob infiltrating our public education system. There’s no room for radical ideologies in our classrooms—I ensure our schools focus on core American values and real education, not indoctrination. Every time the left tries to push their agenda on Idaho’s kids, they find me ready in the trenches, safeguarding our educational standards. (S1176, S1100, H163, several committee meetings)
Defended Idaho's fiscal sovereignty by rejecting ESG...
I've stood firm in defending Idaho's fiscal sovereignty, rejecting the WEF/Blackrock ESG agenda to ensure our state's investments are guided by economic freedom and traditional financial principles. This is about keeping Idaho's economy strong and independent, free from the constraints of politically-driven financial models. (H191)

Sponsored & advanced universal school choice to empower Idaho families...
I sponsored a bill and fought hard to give universal school choice to ALL Idaho kids. I've been at the forefront, fighting for the right of every Idaho family to choose the best education for their children. Because school choice puts power back where it belongs—with parents, not government bureaucrats. (S1038)
Stood against religious discrimination in Idaho education...
I sponsored a bill to strike the Blaine Amendment from our state constitution—a relic of religious bigotry—to steadfastly champion educational freedom and parental choice, including the option of religious schools. This effort underscores my unwavering commitment to our conservative values of liberty and faith. (RS30025)
Protected Idaho gun owners from a "backdoor registry"...
I stood with gun owners to guard our Second Amendment rights. This bill slams the brakes on ESG efforts that unfairly target gun owners and stores, ensuring there's no backdoor registry to worry about. It's about keeping our constitutional rights free from unwarranted scrutiny and upholding our American values. (H295)
Championed choice & competition for Idaho charter schools...
As a staunch advocate for educational excellence, I've stood resolute against the tide of woke indoctrination, ensuring that Idaho's classrooms are bastions of true learning and core American values. As a beacon of this commitment, I voted to create a revolving loan fund that empowers new public charter schools to flourish, offering families the freedom to choose the best educational paths for their children. By lowering financial barriers and fostering competition, this bill not only expands educational opportunities but also enshrines accountability and transparency in our public education system. (S1043, H0113)
Upheld the rights of Idaho families by opposing vaccine discrimination...
I defended personal liberty by ensuring that no Idahoan faces discrimination based on their vaccine status. My bill passed and now, CPS cannot initiate an investigation or determine parental rights based on your child's vaccine status. Your health choices are your business, not the government's. (S1029)
Promoted sexual abstinence education in Idaho schools...
I championed sexual abstinence education because it teaches our youth about responsibility and the value of waiting. This approach lays the foundation for stronger families and a more disciplined generation. (H228)
Delivered property tax relief to Idaho homeowners...
I've voted to cut property taxes because hard-working Idahoans deserve to keep more of their money. It's about respecting the taxpayer and ensuring government doesn't overreach into our pockets. (H292)
Defended Idaho elections against leftist manipulation...
I stood guard against election interference via a "Ranked choice voting" scheme, keeping Idaho's elections secure and fair. (H179)
Protected kids by prohibiting transgender surgery for minors in Idaho...
I've made it clear that children in Idaho should be protected from life-altering surgeries that are irreversible, disgusting, perverse, and evil. (H71a)
Upheld medical freedom by rejecting COVID-19 vaccine mandates...
I fought against overreaching mandates because medical freedom is a cornerstone of a free society. You have the right to make your own health decisions without coercion from the state. (S1130)
Fought for Americans first & against amnesty for illegal aliens...
I led the charge to uphold the rule of law by making sure that citizenship and the rights that come with it are not undermined by illegal actions. We must prioritize American workers, a strong border, and the safety of our citizens. (SJM101)
Championed free-market principles by opposing a socialist work program...
I took a stand against a new government-controlled work program because the free market, not socialism, is the engine of prosperity. Job creation thrives when the government steps back and lets the market drive innovation and growth. (H24)
Fought non-stop for fiscal restraint against Idaho's largest spending bills...
I've never backed down in my battle to slam the brakes on the government's spending frenzy. Fiscal restraint isn't a mere policy—it's a bedrock principle that guards our kids and their kids from inheriting a mountain of debt. While the Idaho Senate has been all too eager to rubber-stamp mammoth spending bills, you've seen me stand up, time and again, on the Senate floor and in committee meetings, to challenge the spendthrift madness head-on. (S1167, H369, H24, H364, H267, H282, H288, H299, etc.)
