You won’t believe this! The City of Boise is refusing to follow a newly enacted state law which prevents municipalities from flying Pride flags.
The new law – which was sponsored by Rep. Heather Scott (R-Blanchard) and Sen. Ben Toews (R-Coeur d’Alene) – went into effect on April 4, 2025.
But despite the law having been in effect for nearly one week, Boise is still flying a Pride flag on its flagpole outside of City Hall.
It’s time for the people of Idaho to stand up and demand that Boise comply with state law. Will you take a minute of your time to send a message insisting that Boise City Council take down their Pride flags?
The City of Boise is known for ignoring state laws with which it disagrees. Just three years ago, Boise City Council adopted a resolution which prevents law enforcement from investigating criminal abortions, effectively making Boise a sanctuary city for abortion.
We can’t let Boise decide which laws it will follow. Our state legislature has already made clear that Pride flags have no place on government flag poles. If Boise won’t follow the law, it must be held accountable—so please send your message now!
