ELECTIONS – States findings of the Legislature and calls on Congress to pass a constitutional amendment affirming the authority of states to govern their election processes.

Idaho's legislature passed SJM 109, a joint memorial urging Congress to support a constitutional amendment affirming states' authority over election processes. It directly calls on Idaho's congressional delegation to champion this amendment, which would reinforce state control over election rules, campaign finance, security, and transparency. The memorial cites Idaho's Constitution and the Tenth Amendment to argue that states, not federal entities, should determine election policies reflecting local needs. This procedural resolution does not change laws but formally requests federal action to preserve state sovereignty in elections.
