Idaho lawmakers tugged on the heartstrings of social media users this spring in a video where 11 Republican representatives shaved their heads in solidarity with one Democratic colleague diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time.
"We were all just devastated for her," state Rep. Josh Wheeler said. "When she gave us the news last year, [we were] further devastated when we found out this year that she needed to undergo a more aggressive chemotherapy, which is where the bald heads came from, standing in solidarity with her."
These Gem State community leaders felt it was important to "go beyond party lines" to support their colleague, state Rep. Brooke Green.
