As chair of the Foreign Relations Committee, Senator Jim Risch owes it to all Americans to ensure that our sons and daughters in uniform are not being used to fuel yet another forever war. Jim was in town recently to accept praise at the Governor’s State of the State; surely he can also make time to face the people he claims to represent, answer our questions, and provide transparent and accountable leadership. | Todd Achilles for Idaho

Why didn’t Sen. Risch, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, know more about the details of the new Qatari facility at Mountain Home Air Force Base? It’s in his own backyard, and he’s held or been part of countless meetings with Qatari officials since 2018. 🤔 This is not leadership, Idaho; it’s a dereliction of duty. #idpol #USSenate #achillesforidaho #Idaho #RetireRisch #senate #Independent | Todd Achilles for Idaho

Idaho Senator Jim Risch is the chair of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, and 3rd most important foreign affairs leader after the President and Sec. of State, but he remains silent as the U.S. deploys a massive military force toward Venezuela. Americans are concerned that this will be another forever war. Sen Risch should be holding hearings and bringing transparency to this conflict. That’s his constitutional duty as a senator: not to stay silent. | Todd Achilles for Idaho
