House Concurrent Resolution No. 38 proposes the addition of a new Joint Rule 24 to the Joint Rules of the Idaho Legislature. This resolution acknowledges the challenges faced by legislators from distant districts in engaging with their constituents during regular legislative sessions. It emphasizes the importance of translating public will into policy and aims to facilitate better communication between legislators and their constituents.

Under the proposed Joint Rule 24, Fridays during even-numbered weeks of the legislative session will be designated as "constituent days," during which neither the House of Representatives nor the Senate will conduct any legislative business. This initiative is intended to provide legislators with dedicated time to meet with constituents, thereby enhancing their ability to represent the interests and concerns of the public effectively.
