Bill Summary

DISASTER EMERGENCIES -- States findings of the Legislature to provide that the state of disaster emergency declared by the Governor regarding novel coronavirus or COVID-19 is terminated, to provide that receipt of federal funds, benefits, or resources arising out of the state of disaster emergency shall not be affected, and to provide that the Governor may make or maintain declarations only to a certain extent.

AI Summary

This Concurrent Resolution formally ends the state of disaster emergency declared by the Governor of Idaho concerning COVID-19, acknowledging that the Legislature has the power to terminate such declarations. Importantly, this termination will not affect the state's ability to receive any federal funds, benefits, or resources that were made available due to the declared emergency. The resolution also clarifies that while the Governor can continue or make new declarations to the extent necessary to secure Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) funding related to COVID-19, these declarations cannot be used to impose restrictions on Idaho citizens.
