The 2026 session has ended, so these statuses are final. Nothing is hidden. Older bills carry an Old badge and stay searchable: use All Sessions or just search.
Idaho House Bill 539, sponsored by Representative Ehlers, has been signed into law and makes changes to the state's Administrative Procedure Act regarding temporary rules. The bill passed overwhelmingly in both chambers (67-2 in the House and 33-1 in the Senate) and was signed by the governor on March 17, 2026.
Without the full text of the bill, the specific changes to how state agencies can implement temporary rules cannot be detailed, but this legislation affects how Idaho state agencies operate and potentially impacts citizens who interact with state regulatory processes.
House Bill 511, sponsored by Rep. Boyle, creates or modifies a surcharge related to private forest land in Idaho and has been signed into law by the governor. The bill passed both chambers of the legislature with the House approving it 46-22 and the Senate passing it 26-9.
Without the full text of the bill, the specific details of how this surcharge affects private forest landowners, the amount of the fee, or its intended purpose cannot be determined from the title and legislative history alone.
