HOUSE BILL 155
Out of committee (S 14th Ord)
Vaccines, prohibition
HEALTH – Adds to existing law to prohibit requiring, for certain purposes, a COVID-19 vaccine or a vaccine offered under emergency use authorization.
RS30368 / H0155
On April 7, 2021, Governor Little issued executive order 2021-04 which essentially prohibited the state of Idaho from requiring proof of vaccination to receive or access state services and facilities. This legislation codifies and expands the Governor’s executive order and provides that individuals will not be required to provide proof of vaccination or negative test results in order to: apply or receive services provided by the state; enter a government venue; or be hired or maintain employment with the state with some exceptions.
There will be negligible fiscal impacts to state or local governments if this legislation passes because it does not create or expand any programs and does not require the expenditure of any funds.
