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 requires a majority vote from both the Senate and House of Representatives, and stipulates that the legislature can recall or suspend commissioners as needed.

Additionally, the resolution specifies 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 defined in 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 the commissioners' compensation, the process for filling vacancies, and penalties for any unlawful 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.
