Today In Your Neighborhood: Wear your 'Everyone is Welcome' shirt and Gov. DeSantis visits Boise

Posted

TREASURE VALLEY, Idaho — These are a few of the things happening today in your neighborhood:

  • WEAR YOUR SHIRT DAY
    • Students, parents, and staff across the West Ada School District will be wearing their 'Everyone is Welcome' shirts as a show of support for middle school teacher Sarah Inama.
    • As we've reported, the district asked Sarah to remove a classroom poster that read "Everyone is Welcome Here", a request that has since sparked global outrage.
  • GOV. DESANTIS VISITING IDAHO CAPITOL
    • And Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will pay a visit to the Statehouse today as he promotes the Balanced Budget Amendment Campaign.
    • It's essentially a letter to Congress that 26 Republican governors, including Gov. Little, have signed.
    • In the letter, they request Congress to work with President Trump and DOGE to solidify the efficiencies they find into law.
    • DeSantis' visit to the Capitol is not open to the public.
  • AIKENS ST. CLOSURE IN EAGLE
    • And starting today, Aikens St. will be closed from Eagle Rd. to 2nd St.
    • This closure is part of ACHD's improvements for the Downtown Eagle Mobility Improvement Project.
    • Motorists should anticipate the road to reopen by the end of May.
