Wow! My first term has just flown by and I am up for re-election this year. I love everything about this job---learning about all the issues, working with state agencies and my colleagues, and being able to serve my constituents and help resolve their problems.  Representing the people of District 18 is a wonderful experience and an honor and I look forward to continuing the work I have started for my district.

I am proud of my legislative record.   I was successful this year in drafting and passing two legislative bills---One that expanded the Circuit Breaker and another about Equity Skimming notification.

Right: Assistant House Minority Leader George Sayler, Gov. Otter, Representative King signing HB544.

Rep. Wendy Jaquet, House Minority leader, (below) commented, "I am truly impressed with how hard working Phylis is.  She takes ideas from constituents, drafts the legislation and gets bills passed.  Phylis's property tax bill was the only property tax relief bill that passed this year."

Idahoans deserve a legislator who will work for real Idaho values-like protecting our quality of life and public lands, fighting for fair tax policies for small businesses and middle class families.

It is important to be responsive to my constituents.  Many of you have written with suggestions and concerns and I thank you for taking the time. I use the information from this correspondence to make informed votes.  I continue to work on the important issues that you've brought to my attention.
