RE-ELECT CARL BJERKE

Continuing the Work for District 5

ABOUT ME

Steady Leadership. Proven Service. Idaho Values.

I serve the people of Idaho’s Senate District 5 with a commitment shaped by faith, public service, and real-world leadership experience. Before serving in the Idaho State Senate, I spent 32 years in the fire service, retiring as Deputy Chief of Operations for the City of Santa Monica Fire Department. My career included service as a firefighter, paramedic, captain, training officer, battalion chief, division chief, and deputy chief, giving me firsthand experience in emergency response, public safety, budgeting, personnel management, and working with local government.

​

That background continues to guide my work in the Legislature. I believe government should be limited, accountable, and focused on the essential services people rely on. I bring a practical, problem-solving approach to issues affecting District 5, including public safety, healthcare access, housing affordability, responsible budgeting, and protecting taxpayers.

​

My motivation comes from my faith and a deep desire to serve others. I believe leadership is not about titles or personal recognition, but about doing the work, listening to the people, and standing firm for the values that make Idaho strong.

​

As I seek re-election, I remain committed to continuing the work I started: serving District 5 with steady leadership, conservative principles, and a servant’s heart.
