Nesse runs for District 4 seat
COEUR d'ALENE - Anne Nesse announced she is running for a seat in the Idaho House of Representatives in District 4.
Nesse, a Coeur d'Alene Democrat, said she is running because current representatives haven't done much to help Coeur d'Alene and the surrounding area.
"Our median wages are the lowest in the nation," Nesse said. "Our high cost of living in relation to income and low investment in education for jobs puts us at the bottom of all the U.S."
Nesse is a former registered nurse, teacher, and businesswoman. She is married to Dr. Rolf Nesse, a family physician, and has three grown children. She wants to work for greater investment in education and jobs of the future.
In 2013 and this year, Nesse wrote a potential new labor law which helped generate more open discussion of low wages in Idaho. More here. CdA Press
