House Resolution No. 2, introduced by the State Affairs Committee, proposes an amendment to Rule 70 of the Rules of the House of Representatives in Idaho. The resolution emphasizes the need for this amendment to clarify who is permitted on the floor of the House during sessions. The amended rule specifies that only legislators and legislative employees are allowed on the floor while the House is conducting business. Elected state officials, former state legislators, and representatives of the news media may enter the floor but must wear badges issued by the Chief Clerk and must be sponsored by a legislator.

Additionally, the resolution stipulates that elected state officials and former state legislators must leave the floor before the House begins its business unless they have received authorization from the Speaker of the House to remain. Any other guests wishing to access the floor must be approved by the Speaker or designated personnel and the Sergeant at Arms. This amendment aims to maintain order and control over who can participate in the legislative process within the House.
