Committee approves two Fish and Game gubernatorial appointments, reauthorizes interim resources committee
Summary
The Idaho Senate Resources Committee recommended confirmation of two gubernatorial appointments to the Fish and Game Commission, advanced a concurrent resolution reauthorizing the interim resources committee and approved earlier meeting minutes.
The Idaho Senate Resources Committee voted to recommend gubernatorial confirmation of two Fish and Game Commission appointments.
Senator Van Orden moved to send the gubernatorial appointment of Mike Roach to the Senate floor with a recommendation that he be confirmed; Senator Taylor seconded the motion and the committee approved it by voice vote.
The committee then considered the gubernatorial reappointment of Ronald Davies. Senator Hart moved to send Davies' reappointment to the Senate floor with recommendation for confirmation; Senator Guthrie seconded, and the motion carried by voice vote.
Representative Britt Raybolt (presenting HCR 3) asked the committee to reauthorize the interim resources committee; the committee voted to send House Concurrent Resolution 3 to the floor with a due-pass recommendation after a brief discussion of the interim committee's role. Representative Raybolt described the interim committee's work as convening stakeholders and reviewing resource issues — for example, chronic wasting disease updates and public-lands fire-season briefings — so the Legislature can be prepared when the next session opens.
The committee also approved minutes for Jan. 8, 2025 and Jan. 13, 2025 after review.
All actions were approved by voice vote at the meeting and were advanced to their respective next steps. No formal roll-call tallies were read into the record during the motions; committee members present moved and seconded each item as described.
