H0557

Idaho H0557 aims to ensure uniformity in local government antidiscrimination ordinances.

Idaho H0557 amends the Idaho Code to establish uniform antidiscrimination regulations across the state. The bill prevents local governments from enacting ordinances that modify, supplement, or expand on state antidiscrimination laws. It allows individuals engaged in business or property owners to sue local governments for non-compliance, seeking declaratory and equitable relief and damages. The attorney general can also seek injunctive relief against violators. The act declares an emergency and will be effective July 1, 2026.
