What is the Support Local Gems All Season Long initiative? The Support Local Gem All Season Long initiative is a holiday revival of Senator Risch’s statewide Support Local Gems campaign. It encourages Idahoans to Support Local Gems – the small businesses in our communities – that make Idaho special. Idaho’s small businesses are the lifeblood of our communities and the backbone of our economy. Like all of us, small businesses are dealing with challenges brought on by rising costs and inflation. Community support ensures small businesses can continue to operate and overcome these economic challenges. We can all play a role in supporting the small businesses that make the Gem State thrive. #smallbusiness. #SupportLocalGems
