Idaho First, Constitution always.

I’m Joe Evans — an Idaho-grown American, U.S. Army veteran, and lifelong advocate for individual liberty — and I’m running for the United States Senate because Idaho deserves representation that answers to the people, not Washington insiders.

I was raised in Idaho, shaped by hard work, personal responsibility, and service. I’m the grandson of two World War II veterans and Southwest Idaho farmers who understood that freedom is never free and that strong communities are built by neighbors helping neighbors — not by distant bureaucracies.

Those values didn’t come from politics. They came from family, service, and lived experience.

Washington has made life more expensive, government less accountable, and liberty less secure
I'm running to reverse that

WHERE I STAND:

Lower the Cost of Living

Idaho families are being squeezed by inflation, federal overspending, bad energy policy, and too much bureaucracy layered onto everyday life. I will fight to reduce the cost of living by cutting Washington waste, restoring sound economic policy, and getting government out of the way of work, production, and ownership.

Tax Relief & Fiscal Discipline

Washington does not have a revenue problem, it has a spending addiction. I support simpler, fairer tax policy, an end to wasteful spending, and a federal government that lives within its constitutional limits instead of pushing debt, inflation, and hidden costs onto working families.

Healthcare Freedom and Affordable Care

Your Healthcare decisions belong to you and your doctor, not federal agencies, corporate middlemen, or political activists. I will fight to prootect medical choice, reduce federal distortions that drive up costs, and expand access to real care for families in both rural and urban Idaho.

Strong Schools, Local Control

Education should serve students, parents, and communities, not distant bureaucrats or ideological agendas. I support local control, parental authority, academic excellence, and practical pathways in trades, agriculture, and skilled work so Idaho kids are prepared to build strong lives here at home.

Secure the Border, Enforce the Law

A nation that cannot control its borders is not serious about sovereignty, security, or citizenship. I support a secure border, an end to catch-and-release and asylum abuse, real consequences for criminal illegal entry, and an immigration system that serves the American people instead of undermining them.

Protect Idaho Jobs, Agriculture, and Small Business

Idaho needs an economy that rewards work, production, and self reliance instead of speculation, monopolies, and federal favoritism. I will fight for small business, agriculture, ranching, domestic production, and trade policies that put American workers and Idaho communities first..

Public Lands, Access, and Fire Management

Idaho's public lands should be open, productive, accessible, and responsibly managed for the people who actually live here. I support policies that improve access, reduce catastrophic wildfire risk, strengthen stewardship, and return decision-making closer to the idaho communities instead of leaving it in the hands of distant federal managers.

Reliable, Affordable American Energy

Idaho families, farms, and businesses need dependable energy they can afford. I support an "all-of-the-above" American energystrategy centered on reliability, domestic production, grid security, and lower power costs, not ideological schemes that make life more expensive and weaken the country.

Honest Elections & Constitutional Government

The people must be able to trust the system that governs them. I support election integrity, voter eligibility verification, secure ballots, and a return to constitutional government where laws are made by elected representatives, not unelected agencies and unaccountable bureaucrats.

Defend the Bill of Rights

Our rights do not come from Washington, and they do not disappear when government finds them inconvenient. I will defend free speech, the right to keep and bear arms, due process, bodily autonomy, property rights, and the full constitutional protection of liberties that secure Idahoans from government overreach.

Separation of Powers

Ending the Administrative State
If Congress didn’t vote on it, Idahoans shouldn’t be forced to follow it.

Foreign Policy

America First Foreign Policy:
Peace, Strength, and Constitutional War Powers.
Idaho families should not be asked to sacrifice their sons and daughters for wars that have nothing to do with defending our homeland.
