Idaho: Bad School Carry Bill Hearing Tomorrow

TOMORRROW, March 13th, the Senate State Affairs Committee will hold a hearing on Senate Bill 1418, which goes above and beyond what current law allows for school employees to carry firearms, and hands over draconian gun control authority to school board officials. Please consider joining your NRA in Boise at the Capitol or register to testify remotely against this bill. Contact members of the committee by using the button below and urge them to OPPOSE S 1418!

S 1418 was introduced by Senate State Affairs Chairman Guthrie, and sets a dangerous precedent for the state of Idaho and a slippery slope to erode legislative preemption of firearms laws. S 1418 undermines preemption, stand your ground, and an individual’s right to keep and bear arms.

S 1418 arms school boards with unfettered subjective discretion to establish unobtainable requirements for a school employee to carry because of their personal bias. S 1418 allows politically elected school boards to determine, outside of existing law:

  • The “personal qualifications” of a teacher who is already legally authorized by a sheriff to carry a concealed firearm
  • The type of firearm and ammunition a school employee may carry
  • The appropriate use of force, and 
  • The mandatory training requirements that local schools can increase if they choose

This bill is a step backwards for Idaho, eroding the status quo, rather than strengthening a school employee’s ability to defend themselves at their place of employment.  

The NRA strongly opposes S 1418. Please urge the Senate State Affairs Committee to OPPOSE S 1418.
