Idaho Bills

Repeals and amends existing law to remove provisions relating to obsolete public assistance programs.

Consistent with the Governor's Red Tape Reduction Act, this bill seeks to eliminate inactive provisions of law. The Department of Health and Welfare recently reviewed Idaho Code to identify obsolete sections which may be stricken from Idaho Code without impact for our programs. The sections being stricken relate to a weight control pilot project that was completed prior to 2007 and to a health insurance assistance program that became obsolete when the state Health Insurance Exchange, Your Health Idaho, was implemented in 2014.
