Council Member Jordan Morales

Jordan Morales was elected to the Boise City Council in 2023 as the first representative to serve from District 4, which encompasses Southeast Boise and the Vista Bench. His priorities on the council include housing affordability, safe streets, transportation, and climate action.

Jordan's path to public service began early. His grandfather's service in the Idaho State Senate and a formative Meridian High School government class sparked a lifelong passion for civic engagement. Before joining the council, Jordan served as a Precinct Committeeperson in Southeast Boise, as a Chief Judge of Elections in numerous elections for Ada County, and twice as a Post-election Audit Commissioner for the Idaho Secretary of State office.

Professionally, Jordan manages business operations for Boise State University's Department of Computer Science. Over the course of his tenure, he has helped the program grow dramatically to become the largest public computer science program in Idaho, playing a meaningful role in strengthening Boise's technology ecosystem and supporting students in building life-changing and exciting careers.

Jordan has called District 4 home for over 20 years where together with his wife Katie, he is now raising their three children. They appreciate the access to great schools, libraries, public transit, safe streets, parks and natural open spaces to walk, bike and paddle, nearby family and many wonderful neighbors. When he's not working for the city or Boise State, Jordan can be found with his family at his children’s extracurriculars, a Boise State sporting event (likely early with a BBQ), at a public event, with his church community, or out enjoying everything Idaho's great outdoors has to offer.
