Welcome to the Idaho Chapter of the Federal Bar Association.<\/p>\n

The mission of the Federal Bar Association\u2014to strengthen the federal legal system and the administration of justice\u2014resonates deeply here in Idaho. Our chapter is committed to fostering meaningful engagement between the bench and bar, delivering high-quality federal practice programming, and promoting professional and collegial connections among members of the federal legal profession.<\/p>\n

This year, our Chapter is focused on revitalizing chapter programming, increasing participation across our geographically diverse district, and expanding opportunities for federal practitioners to engage directly with members of the bench. We aim to ensure that the Idaho Chapter serves as a vibrant organization for dialogue, education, and professional growth.<\/p>\n

If you are a federal practitioner in Idaho, I encourage you to join the Chapter, attend an event, and explore ways to become more involved. The strength of our Chapter depends on the engagement of its members.<\/p>\n

It is a privilege to serve as President of this Chapter and to work alongside the exceptional judges, practitioners, and public servants who make up Idaho\u2019s federal bar.<\/p>\n
