BOISE --As we head into winter there is a bit of good news for low-income Idahoans -- the state has more money to help you heat your home.

Idaho has 54 percent more funding than it did last year from the low-income home energy assistance program.

Not only is there more money available, but Governor Butch Otter says Idaho is expanding the income guidelines so more people can get help.
