This bill introduces a new chapter, Chapter 17, to Title 7 of the Idaho Code, focusing on compliance with the law by public servants. It aims to address the issue of elite impunity by establishing consequences for public officers, employees, and entities that violate legal prohibitions. The chapter outlines definitions, procedures for reporting violations, and the roles of the governor, legislative leaders, and county commissioners in referring potential violations to the attorney general. It also provides a framework for notifying alleged violators, allowing them an opportunity to respond and cure the violation within specified timeframes.

Furthermore, the bill empowers the attorney general to take legal action against public officers or employees who deny violations or fail to comply with the law. Courts are authorized to issue orders for compliance, and those who do not comply may face contempt charges. Additionally, the attorney general can seek disqualification from public office or employment for willful violations, with the possibility of imposing attorney's fees on the prevailing party in such actions. The bill emphasizes accountability and aims to restore public trust in government by ensuring that public servants adhere to the law. An emergency clause is included, allowing the act to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
