This bill amends Chapter 63, Title 67 of the Idaho Code by adding a new section, 67-6303, which establishes provisions for assisting political subdivisions in defending state law against constitutional challenges. The new section defines key terms, including "Council" as the constitutional defense council and "political subdivision" as defined in existing law. It allows political subdivisions to request state assistance in legal actions challenging the constitutionality of state statutes. Requests must include a detailed explanation of the need for assistance, a synopsis of the legal action, and any additional information required by the council.

The bill outlines the types of assistance that may be provided, including funding for private counsel, reimbursement for attorney's fees, assistance from the Idaho attorney general, and state intervention. The council is tasked with making decisions on these requests based on public interest, availability of state resources, and the potential impact on Idaho's sovereignty. The bill declares an emergency, making it effective on July 1, 2025.
