The bill amends Chapter 63, Title 67 of the Idaho Code by adding a new section, 67-6303, which establishes provisions for assisting individuals litigating against the federal government, specifically concerning grazing or water rights. It defines key terms such as "Council," referring to the constitutional defense council, and "Petitioner," which pertains to Idaho citizens involved in legal proceedings with the federal government. The bill outlines the process for petitioners to request state assistance, including funding for private counsel, reimbursement of attorney's fees, and legal representation from the attorney general's office.

The council is required to respond to petitions within thirty days, considering factors such as the societal importance of the rights involved, the necessity for private enforcement, and the potential benefits to Idaho citizens. The council has the discretion to provide assistance if it determines that doing so serves the public interest and aligns with the state's sovereignty and resources. The bill also declares an emergency, making it effective on July 1, 2025.
