## Resource

Idaho’s rolling out the red carpet for America’s 250th birthday with a wild, wallet-friendly spectacle in D.C.—complete with a life-size cow, a river raft, and a Marilyn Monroe potato sack—to prove it’s more than just potatoes. Pumping nearly $250K into a 16-day extravaganza, they’re showcasing whitewater rivers, tech giants like Micron, and the Idaho National Lab, all while Governor Brad Little pitches the Gem State as rugged, innovative, and unstoppable. But not every neighbor’s buying in—Oregon and Washington are pulling out over cost and partisan concerns—yet Idaho’s doubling down, calling this a rare, national spotlight moment they can’t pass up.
