Idaho 2026 Regular Session

Agenda Mar 2nd, 2026

Key Moments

  • Jordan Redman — Called on by name at the end of the sponsor's remarks, likely as the next speaker or questioner; transcript says 'Representative Kaler,' which appears to be a transcription error.
  • Jordan Redman — Asked about how eligibility would be determined for the 1,000 authorized participants.
  • Jordan Redman — Moved to introduce RS 33365.
  • Jordan Redman — Moved to introduce RS 33541.
  • Dori Healey — Representative Healy repeatedly participates in the meeting by moving to introduce several RS measures—RS 33371, RS 33372, and RS 33381—while also being referenced as having priority for a question. The sequence reflects her active procedural role in introducing legislation during the same discussion.
  • Lori McCann — Representative McCann introduces the bill while reserving the right to ask questions, then follows up with questions about the fiscal note and who would pay transportation costs if a child must be transported out of the school of origin.
  • Tanya Burgoyne — Representative Tanya Burgoyne introduced RS 33381 concerning foster children and their school of origin, and was then briefly thanked by the chair during the same discussion.
  • Megan Egbert — Representative Egbert is identified as having a question, which is then followed up in the discussion about how the proposal would interact with placement rules and transportation costs. Later references point back to Egbert as the source of the earlier question, tying the exchange together as one continuous discussion.
  • Brooke Green — Referenced jokingly as leaving the chair before the vote.
  • Ilana Rubel — Representative Ilana Rubel introduced RS 33365, explaining that it would restore the Family Personal Care Services Program. She emphasized that the program would save money and praised families for working hard to seek legislative help. In response to questions, she clarified that the bill establishes a rulemaking process for the department to set eligibility criteria and create a wait list.
  • Rob Beiswenger — Rob Beiswenger introduced RS 33541, a revised Medical Freedom Expansion Bill, and explained that the main change was removing the cause of action from the proposal.
  • David Leavitt — Representative Leavitt was noted as having arrived and being present at the start of the meeting.
  • Jordan Redman — Representative Jordan Redmond was identified as the sponsor of RS 3371 and then introduced himself as the District 3 representative from Cootney County. He presented RS 33371 and requested its introduction. Shortly afterward, he was again identified as the sponsor of RS 33372 and returned to present that measure as well, describing it as a similar proposal that would expand the scope of practice for physician assistants.
