STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30177 / H0116
This bill is an update to 48-603G, Idaho Code, which went into effect July 1, 2022. The law ensures that
consumers can easily cancel online subscriptions that would otherwise be automatically renewed. The law
was not originally intended to capture companies regulated by the Public Utilities Commission or Federal
Communications Commission. So this update clarifies that those companies are exempt from the law. This bill
also clarifies how companies must offer citizens the ability cancel a subscription.
FISCAL NOTE
There is no fiscal impact.
