AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to revise the governor's authority during a state of extreme peril. It specifies that the governor may proclaim a state of extreme peril due to an enemy attack, violent insurrection, or other threats to public safety. During such a state of peril, the governor has authority over state agencies and can issue necessary rules and orders, but these must be limited in scope and cannot restrict the right to work or suspend constitutional rights. The bill also places limits on the duration of a state of extreme peril, allows the legislature to terminate or extend it, and permits the legislature to reject any rules or orders issued by the governor. Additionally, the bill prohibits the governor from altering, adjusting, or suspending any provision of the Idaho Code during a state of extreme peril.
