Mom Runs for Office After Daughter Bullied

When Amy Henry's sixth-grade daughter got to go back to school part-time after Covid lockdowns, she was thrilled. But what awaited her was a nightmare. She was targeted by bullies and viciously attacked. Instead of coming to her defense, school administrators sided with the bullies. The experience opened Amy's eyes to the policies that endangered her daughter and all children in their native Idaho. She decided to take action.

Amy had no background in politics and had taught middle school for years before taking time to raise her three children with her Air Force veteran husband. After her daughter's experience, Amy decided to run for the Idaho House of Representatives. With a focus on parental rights and protecting vulnerable children, Amy is running as an advocate for all Idahoans. When there are so many threats to our children's safety and security, it can be hard to know where to start. Amy shows us that you can aim high and take bold action in defense of children and family values.
