Rob Bishop: Lone Voice Fighting for Balanced Federalism

By LaVarr Webb

Rob Bishop is my favorite congressman of the day because he's the only member of Congress I'm aware of who makes balanced federalism a consistent theme in his legislative priorities.

Bishop trusts states, and he believes less should be done at the federal level and more should be done at the state level. He believes that the federal government is overreaching and is promoting too many one-size-fits-all solutions that won't work everywhere in America. He believes power should be devolved to the state level.
