RESTORING CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNANCE ACT OF IDAHO -- Adds to existing law to provide legislative determination and to provide for the prohibition on the detention and disposition of Idaho citizens.

RESTORING CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNANCE ACT OF IDAHO

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

The purpose of the Restoring Constitutional Governance Act is to restore the constitutional protections usurped by certain provisions in the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act ("NDAA"). Sections 1021 and 1022 of the 2012 NDAA, Public Law 50 U.S.C. 1541, authorize the violation of no fewer than 14 provisions of the Constitution including over half of the Bill of Rights. The sovereign government of the Great State of Idaho has a duty to protect the rights of citizens and other persons within Idaho's jurisdiction against such violations and from Federal overreach. By enacting this bill, the Idaho legislature holds that indefinite detention without due process or transfer to jurisdictions outside the United States of persons within Idaho in particular and citizens of Idaho in general are unlawful and violate the Constitution of the State of Idaho and the Constitution of the United States of America.
