Idaho legislators have gathered at the statehouse for the 2012 session now for 81 days.

The Idaho Legislature kicked off Monday with Governor Brad Little’s first State of the State speech. Lawmakers spent much of the week going to orientation, looking at rules and discussing budgets.

Samantha Wright sat down with Boise State Political Science Professor Gary Moncrief to find out how Idaho’s legislature compares to those in other states.

Gary and Samantha will bring back their podcast Legislative Breakdown starting Friday 1/18. You’ll be able to download Legislative Breakdown wherever you get your podcasts.
