To authorize an additional district judgeship for the district of Idaho.
HR 319 authorizes the appointment of one additional federal district judge for Idaho's judicial district. This bill directly affects Idaho's federal court system by increasing its staffing capacity. The legislation requires the President to nominate the judge with Senate confirmation, and includes a technical amendment to update the official list of authorized judgeships in U.S. Code. This is a procedural adjustment to court staffing, not a change to legal policy or citizen rights.
