Idaho Bills
2 bills · 2020 Regular Session
Adds to existing law to provide for the offense of criminal abortion, to provide penalties, to provide affirmative defenses, and to provide exceptions.
49 – 18
Repeals and adds to existing law to provide that abortion shall be illegal and the attorney general shall direct state agencies to enforce this act.
This legislation would end all legal abortion in Idaho, without exception. It provides legislative intent, repeals a section of Idaho code that prohibits the prosecution of abortion as murder, defines terms, directs the Attorney General to enforce State law regardless of any contrary court opinions, and provides prosecuting discretion. This legislation asserts Idaho's lawful authority to ignore the Federal Judiciary's unconstitutional abortion jurisprudence.
