Idaho House honors Olympic medalist Kristin Armstrong

The House has voted unanimously to honor Kristin Armstrong, the two-time Olympic gold medal cyclist from Boise. “In my estimation, Kristin Armstrong has grit and courage and determination – she doesn’t give up,” said Rep. Grant Burgoyne, D-Boise. “And she reminds us that the Idaho character is strong and equal to any challenge that we face.” Rep. Hy Kloc, D-Boise, said Armstrong “enhances the image of Idaho as a state with a vibrant and active outdoor culture.” The resolution honoring Armstrong, HCR 4, now moves to the Senate.
