(Stand Up For Idaho Press Release, June 16, 2026)
Idaho Falls–This coming general election in November will not only let Idahoans determine a variety of elected officials including Governor and legislators, it will also let Idahoans vote on two (2) proposed amendments to Idaho’s Constitution and potentially three (3) initiatives. Former state Representative Julianne Young will be here to discuss each of the proposed amendments and initiatives, and what they mean. The proposed amendments and initiatives are:
Amendments:
House Joint Resolution 4 (HJR 4), the ‘Grant Legislature Exclusive Authority and Prohibit Citizen-Initiated Measures on Marijuana, Narcotics, and Psychoactive Substances Amendment’
House Joint Resolution 6 (HJR 6), the ‘English as Official State Language Amendment’
Initiatives:
Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act
Decriminalize Cannabis Now Initiative
It may seem a bit early to be discussing these, but it really isn’t. Each of these are serious and can have far reaching impacts. We all need to understand what they are, what they mean, and whether we agree with them or not. It is then up to each of us to educate our family, friends, and colleagues on each of the proposed amendments/initiatives – obviously with the hopes that they agree with your way of thinking.
Once again, each of these are serious and can have far reaching impacts. So be sure to come and be part of the conversation!
