Montana Offers Restraining Order Cards

Montana has become the first state to offer the “Hope Card,” a wallet-sized card that will be carried by someone who has been granted a restraining order. The card contains information about the person who has been granted the permanent order of protection and who is restrained by it. It will include the restrained person’s photo, name, birth date and other identifying information along with details on those who are protected, including children. Local law enforcement and victim advocates joined Attorney General Steve Bullock today to announce the new program/ Angela Brandt , Helena Independent-Record. More here .

Question: Should Idaho also offer the “Hope Card” for individuals who have been granted a restraining order?
