House suspends rules, takes up federal land transfer resolution

The House has convened, and held all the bills on its 3rd Reading calendar for today; instead, it’ll suspend rules and take up measures that were on 2nd Reading. First up: HCR 22, the resolution demanding that the federal government transfer title to all Idaho federal lands to the state.

“Examples of federal inefficiency and mismanagement abound,” said Rep. Lawerence Denney, R-Midvale, opening the debate.
