Senate Bill 1023, the "Idaho Medical Freedom Act," aimed to prohibit medical mandates across the state but was vetoed by Gov. Brad Little after passing both the House and Senate.
"Parents deserve to send their children to school or day care knowing they will be safe from contagious illnesses that disrupt families’ lives," Little said, explaining his veto.
