Gov. Brad Little
BOISE Gov. Brad Little said legislators should strongly consider delaying the upcoming session or moving to a remote setting, as coronavirus cases and deaths continue to increase and pressure mounts on Idaho’s hospitals.
Little said he is also considering changing how he delivers the annual State of the State address, which is scheduled to open the legislative session on Jan. 11.
“This (Statehouse) building is a pretty good petri dish for transmissible moments of COVID,” Little told Idaho Education News during a telephone interview Thursday afternoon. “I would advise my separate but equal legislative branch to seriously consider it.”
