Political Podcast – Steve Brown: Seeking civility, cooperation

  Published at  | Updated at

Name: Steve Brown

City: Pocatello

Seat: City Council

A man who served 12 years as a congressional staffer for U.S. Sen. Larry Craig and Rep. Mike Simpson is seeking re-election for his seat on the City Council.

Brown, who started a successful insurance agency several years ago, was appointed to the council in 2010 and then won the seat two years later.

Government service is in Brown’s heritage. His father served on the City Council, as mayor of Pocatello and later on the Idaho State Legislature.

Brown was also on the Pocatello Development Authority for 11 years, five of which he served as its president.

A sense of civility and cooperation in a diverse City Council is one of the chief goals for Brown, who believes that diversity is good, but that everyone needs to listen to and respect each other.
