About Lara Herway
Idaho Sunshine’s official profile identifies Hometown Heroes, filing entity ID 1077, as registered April 17, 2024 and last amended January 21, 2026, with Lara Herway serving simultaneously as treasurer and chairperson. Risch Pisca’s official biography identifies Herway as founder of Sunnybrook Strategies, a political consultant who has managed or advised more than 50 campaigns, and a lobbyist for Risch Pisca Law and Policy. Idaho Ground Water Appropriators’ official site identifies Herway as its executive director. Supported conclusion: Hometown Heroes’ formal control point is a campaign strategist and lobbyist embedded in Risch Pisca and Idaho groundwater-interest advocacy. Evidence firewall: these overlapping roles establish a structural bridge; they do not prove that any Risch Pisca client, IGWA, or donor directed Hometown Heroes’ candidate decisions.
