Idaho Index

Freedom ♦ Spending

Our goal is to make state legislation transparent and readily accessible.

Final 2025 Index Scores:

All tallied votes and scores have been reviewed for accuracy and consistency.

NOTE: In order to maintain accuracy, all floor votes on rated legislation are tallied in the Index Scores shown here. Amended bills may receive more than one floor vote. Accounting for multiple votes on amended legislation can cause slight variations in the final Index Scores. The 2025 Legislative Session included 19 positively or negatively rated bills (15 House bills and 4 Senate bills) that received two floor votes in the same body. If you have questions about bill ratings or scoring methodology, please send us an email at [email protected].
