Idaho Bills

Proposes an amendment to House Rule 70 to add certain restrictions regarding admittance to the floor of the House.

The purpose of this rule change to Rule 70 is to stop allowing any prior house member to be on the floor while the house is transacting business. Rule 70 as currently written allows prior house members to be on the floor at any time without any approval. This rule could be problematic if a prior house member becomes a lobbyist or is running for office trying to make a political statement.
