Russ Fulcher, the U.S. Representative for Idaho's First Congressional District, has launched a 2026 issues survey to gather feedback from Idaho residents on policy priorities such as public lands management, personal privacy, federal election security, healthcare, and housing affordability. The online survey asks participants to rate the importance of various issues and provide basic contact information, with the goal of using constituent perspectives to guide Fulcher's legislative decisions.

Why it matters

As a member of Congress, Fulcher aims to represent the values and concerns of his constituents in Idaho's First District. This survey provides an opportunity for residents to directly influence the policy agenda and legislative priorities that Fulcher will focus on leading up to the 2026 election cycle.

The details

The survey is available through Fulcher's official congressional website and will remain open until February 28, 2026. Participants are asked to rate the importance of several issues on a scale from one to five, with one representing very low importance and five representing very high importance. Respondents are also asked to provide their name and address, but Fulcher's office has stated that personally identifiable information and survey responses will remain confidential.

• The survey was launched on January 30, 2026.
• The survey will remain open until February 28, 2026.

What’s next

After the survey closes on February 28, 2026, Fulcher's office will review the responses and use the feedback to help guide his legislative priorities and policy decisions leading up to the 2026 election cycle.
