GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • Governor Little signed House Bill 270 today, which updates the state's indecent exposure law to ban public breast exposure and the display of artificial breasts and products that mimic genitals while exempting breastfeeding. Idaho Senate Minority Leader Melissa Wintrow warned the law may lead to more police calls about truck nuts—raising concerns for law enforcement.  IdahoNews

Similar laws have been blocked in other states, and the issue is now headed to court.  IdahoNews
