House Concurrent Resolution No. 9 establishes guidelines for commissioners representing the State of Idaho at an Article V convention aimed at proposing amendments to the U.S. Constitution. The resolution outlines definitions for key terms such as "commissioner," "advisory committee," and "delegation," and sets forth the qualifications required for commissioners, including citizenship, residency, age, and a clean legal record. It also details the selection process for commissioners, which involves a concurrent resolution passed by the legislature, and stipulates that the delegation must maintain an odd number of commissioners. Additionally, the resolution provides for the removal and recall of commissioners, the oath they must take, and the compensation they will receive.

The resolution further delineates the scope of authority for the commissioners, emphasizing that they cannot vote for changes to the convention's decision-making rules or support amendments that alter individual liberties as guaranteed by the Constitution. It establishes an advisory committee to oversee the commissioners and monitor their adherence to the defined authority. The resolution also includes provisions for handling vacancies, ensuring proper conduct within the delegation, and addressing any interference with a commissioner's duties. Overall, the resolution aims to ensure that Idaho's representation at the convention is structured, accountable, and aligned with the state's legislative intent.
