Rep. Marge Chadderdon, R-Coeur d’Alene, says she’s got a new version of her flag bill in the works, after problems cropped up with amendments already made to the bill. Chadderdon originally sought to prohibit state or local agencies in Idaho from buying any U.S. or Idaho flags that aren’t made in the United States, but a clause in her original bill that declared that if agencies bought such flags, they wouldn’t have to pay for them, raised concerns in the House, prompting amendments to the bill. Chadderdon said she sought an Attorney General’s opinion and now wants to change the bill again. “They’ve given me permission to get a new bill drafted, according to the recommendations,” Chadderdon said. “Some of what we amended probably shouldn’t have been.”
