Historical NoteReturn to Top

The Idaho State Employees Association (ISEA) was founded in 1959 to advocate for state employees on labor related issues. They changed their name to the Idaho Public Employees Association (IPEA) in 1974. As a nonprofit member-driven organization representing active and retired members from every department in state government in the State of Idaho, the IPEA advocated for members' rights. They took on issues of workers pay, benefits and rights, as well as the benefits and rights of retired public employees. The IPEA was dissolved in 2020.
