S1205 expands the prohibition on firearms and their components from confiscation enforcement from new federal executive orders and prohibiting Idaho government entities from assisting in the enforcement of new federal actions regarding firearms.
The Idaho State Senate passed on S1205 on April 20, 2021 by a vote of 28 to 7. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because the fundamental right of the American people to keep and bear arms is protected by the U.S. Constitution, particularly in the 2nd, 9th, and 10th Amendments, and should not be infringed. Furthermore, under Article VI of the U.S. Constitution, states have a duty to nullify infringements by the federal government.
