Idaho Anti-Zionists

Idaho, first

Stop legislating for foreign interests. Start legislating for Idaho.

We're a growing network of Idahoans who think our statehouse should spend its time on Idaho's roads, water, and schools — not on bills written to serve another country's foreign policy. We track the legislation, highlight candidates who share that priority, and organize so our representatives actually hear from the people who elected them.

Where we stand

What this network is — and isn't

We're a policy and organizing project. Before anything else, here's the line we hold ourselves to.

What we stand for

  • Idaho tax dollars and legislative time going to Idaho problems first
  • Public scrutiny of any bill that ties Idaho policy, funds, or contracts to a foreign government
  • Candidates who will answer plainly, on the record, about where they stand
  • Publishing our sources and our reasoning, so you can check our work

What we don't stand for

  • Targeting anyone for their faith, ancestry, or personal beliefs
  • Harassment or intimidation of legislators, staff, or private citizens
  • Conspiracy theories or claims we haven't verified

Previous bills

Legislation from past sessions

Bills that didn't advance still matter — they show what's likely to come back. Here's one from the last cycle.

Failed

RS32552 — antisemitism definition proposal

A routing slip from Rep. Barbara Ehardt (R-Idaho Falls) that would have written a formal definition of antisemitism into Idaho law. It did not clear the routing-slip stage and was never introduced as a numbered bill. Idaho does not publish routing-slip text unless it advances, so there's no official bill text — this is reported on directly in the source below. Read the article →

RS32552 · 2025 session
Passed

HCR 25 — Holocaust Education

A concurrent resolution encouraging (not mandating) the Idaho State Department of Education to review and consider adopting age-appropriate Holocaust education in schools and charter schools. Passed the House 62–0–8 and the Senate 34–0–1; delivered to the Secretary of State on March 21, 2024. Non-binding — it's an encouragement, not a mandate.

Proclamation

Holocaust Remembrance Day Proclamation

A symbolic proclamation issued by Gov. Brad Little marking Holocaust Remembrance Day. It carries no statutory force — it's a formal statement, not a bill or law. Read the proclamation →

SB 1086 — Anti-Boycott Against Israel Act

Bars public entities from contracting over $100,000 with companies that boycott Israel unless the company certifies it isn't participating in a boycott. Passed the House 56–12 and the Senate 35–0, signed by Gov. Brad Little on April 22, 2021. Now codified as Idaho Code § 67-2346, still in effect. Read the bill text → · Read the current statute →

Failed

SB 1402 — proposed Anti-Boycott Act

An earlier, nearly identical version of the anti-boycott contracting measure. It died in the Senate State Affairs Committee and never reached a floor vote — the version that ultimately passed was reintroduced the following session as SB 1086. Read the bill text →

SB 1402 · 2020 session
Failed

HB 569 — Israel boycott divestment bill

Broader than the later contracting bills: this one would have required the state treasurer and PERSI board to blacklist and fully divest state investment holdings in companies that boycott for Palestinian rights. Introduced but died in committee. Read the bill text →
