Idaho Bills

States findings of the Legislature and establishes an interim committee to study the crime of sextortion and to make recommendations to the Legislature.

The proposed concurrent resolution would establish a legislative interim committee to study the crime of sextortion, its impact on victims, and strategies for prevention and response. The interim committee would examine how sextortion is carried out, its effects, particularly on minors, and review existing statutes to determine whether changes are needed to protect our youth. The Legislative Council would determine the interim committee's membership, including legislators from both parties and representatives from relevant agencies such as the Attorney General’s Office, the Idaho Department of Education, and the Idaho Crisis and Suicide Hotline. The interim committee would also be authorized to gather input from stakeholders and affected individuals and would report its findings, recommendations, and any proposed legislation to the First Regular Session of the Sixty-ninth Idaho Legislature.
