Idaho Legislature — 🚨ALERT: Idaho Immigration Bills Hang in the Balance (posted 03/11/26 from email received 03/10/26)

Below is a message from Idaho Freedom Caucus (posted as is, with minor formatting changes for Substack)

Dear Patriot,

The Idaho Freedom Caucus legislators are delivering on what Idahoans demanded: stopping the unprecedented infiltration of our state by illegal immigrants. Our team has been working to slash millions of taxpayer-dollars that are being used to fund illegal aliens' medical, education, and law enforcement costs. We are also empowering our law enforcement to work with ICE more effectively.

Now....

These crucial bills are being held up in committee.

➡️ H659 - Illegal Immigrant Enforcement - After passing the House 41-27, this bill was routed to the Senate State Affairs committee and remains there.

➡️ H700 - Unlawful Employment of Aliens - After passing the House 36-33, the bill was routed to the Senate State Affairs committee and remains there.

➡️H660 - Verifying the Status of Arrested Immigrants - Stalled in the House Judiciary and Rules committee.

➡️ H693/H764 - Shielding and Concealing Aliens - Stalled in the House Judiciary and Rules committee.

➡️ H656 - Documentation of Student Immigration Data - Died in the House Education committee.

➡️ S1318 - Auditing Refugee Resettlement - Stalled in the Senate State Affairs committee.

For details on our writeups of these bills, see: tinyurl.com/nkn4663d
We’ve also included calls for action asking citizens to contact the committee chairs and committees about these bills. Please check out or Substack Notes for details.

Currently, we lack clear data on the number of illegal immigrants in Idaho, their associated costs, and the impacts on our communities. This issue continues to grow unchecked. This is not what you wanted. This is not a free Idaho for its citizens.

The Idaho Freedom Caucus is pro-safety, pro-business, and pro-prosperity. We introduced several of these bills with these fundamental principles in mind for you, the voter. We fought to get here, and now we are fighting to keep moving forward. We refuse to give up.

Donate today to help keep Idaho safe and free.
