House Concurrent Resolution No. 11 encourages cities, counties, and other governing bodies in Idaho to support young entrepreneurs by recognizing the value of youth-run businesses. The resolution highlights that owning and operating a business provides young people with essential real-world experience, fosters community engagement, and instills a strong work ethic. It also points out that excessive regulations can hinder creativity and discourage youth from pursuing entrepreneurial opportunities.

To promote entrepreneurship among youth, the resolution calls for local governments to consider the benefits of encouraging young people to explore business ventures. It suggests waiving or eliminating permitting and licensure fees for businesses operated by minors, simplifying regulatory requirements while ensuring public health and safety, and creating opportunities for young entrepreneurs to showcase their products and services at community events. By taking these steps, local governments can help cultivate the next generation of innovators and leaders, contributing to the overall economic growth and community pride.
