Is Idaho going to get bigger?

I wouldn’t have a problem giving Matt Gaetz district to Alabama.

 

I think you answered your own question. But not only does Idaho maybe gain, but Oregon may lose some representation in the House.

Seems like a pretty big deal in the current dead heat we have in politics.

 

Eastern Washington and Oregon are much more like Idaho than they are like the western parts of their states.

 

It’s been posted before but not recently.
It won’t get anywhere any time soon. It can’t get past the Oregon legislature or the us senate likely.

 

That's gonna be a big Ida-no

 

we have some of that here in alachua county where population west of gainesville wants to form it's own county to get away from the puppet county commision ruled by the gainesville city commision.

 

Relatedly, this was a great book and the few episodes of the show I watched were good

 

Not your best work

 

Still think Congress would have to agree. Not exactly the situation, but Art IV, Clause 3. I appreciate it is not a new state, but pretty clear not only here but everywhere that Congress has to approve of anything with states and boundaries, especially because federal land is also undoubtedly included and/or impacted


New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or Parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.

The Congress shall have Power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States; and nothing in this Constitution shall be so construed as to Prejudice any Claims of the United States, or of any particular State.

 

Boise is almost the same % of state pop that Portland is

 

Meanwhile, in Idaho



From the linked story


RATHDRUM, Idaho - Tilly, the 2-year-old Border Collie who was ejected from a car Sunday during a crash, has been found.

He was found on a sheep farm, where he had apparently taken up the role of sheep herder.

 

If I'm understanding correctly, not sure why it's surprising that Democrats in Oregon don't want to suddenly become residents of one of the most conservative states in the country.

 

Jesus, members of the party of UNlimited BIG GOV & very limited personal responsibility caint show a smidge of initiative & move? Welfare snow flakes

 

Not sure whether or to what extent it's related, but many on the extreme right have been flocking to Idaho.
