Following is the text of the four ballot initiatives filed earlier this week
by the Idaho Citizens Alliance.  These ballot initiatives include: 1.) a
revised anti-gay initiative (Son of Prop 1); 2.) an anti-abortion initiative;
3.)  a teacher's union busting bill; and 4.) a tax credit provision for home
and private school parents bill.
Please note that while only the anti-gay initiative was filed under the name
of the Idaho Citizens Alliance, all four initiatives are the work of the ICA
and the group names used, such as "Idahoans for Compassion" (the
anti-abortion bill) and "Idahoans for Choice in Education" (the two
education-related initiatives), are merely fronts or facades for the ICA.

political subdivision thereof:
(a)  Shall not declare any individual or group, solely on the basis of
homosexual behavior,  to constitute an officially sanctioned or recognized

special, exclusive, or preferential status, treatment, or classification
under law.

law.

advocate, endorse, or encourage homosexual behavior.
(d)  Shall not authorize, approve, or allow the promotion advocacy,
endorsement, or encouragement of homosexual behavior in any officially
sanctioned public school class, course, curriculum, activity, program or
event, and shall require that any discussion of such behavior therein occur
only on an age-appropriate basis as defined by the local school board.

"Abortions and Contraceptives" shall be amended by the addition as follows,
to be entitled the
"Protection from Late Term Abortion Act"

Section 18-616.  WILLFUL  DEATH OF A CHILD BEYOND A PRESCRIBED STAGE OF
PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT PROHIBITED.  Any willful, intentional act for the
purpose of causing the death of a living child who is beyond his or her first
thirteen weeks of prenatal development shall be prohibited, except to save
the life of the child's mother.

Section 18-617.  PROCEDURES COMMONLY PRACTICED TO CAUSE WILLFUL DEATH
PROHIBITED FOR PRENATAL CHILDREN OVER THE AGE OF 13 WEEKS.   The people find
that procedures used in later term abortions cause suffering and pain in the
unborn which is inhumane.  The prohibition provided by this Chapter shall
apply to the following procedures only after 13 weeks of gestation, including
but not limited to the following abortion procedures: (a) dismemberment of
the prenatal child's body, or (b) chemically burning or poisoning the
prenatal child, or (c) the partial delivery of a prenatal child for the
purpose of removing, by incision through the skull, followed by suction, the
child's brain from his or her skull, otherwise known as brain suction
abortion (dilation and extraction).

Section 18-618.  DETERMINATION OF PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT PROVIDED.   For
purposes of the application of this legislation, a declaration of opinion by
the attending physician shall be required to determine whether the life of a
child falls within or beyond his or her first thirteen weeks of prenatal
development.

Section 18-619.  WOMAN NOT GUILTY.  A woman  upon whom any abortion is
performed or attempted to be performed after 13 weeks of gestation, as per
the intent of this act, is not guilty of an attempt to commit, complicity in
the commission of, or conspiracy in the commission of a violation of this
act.

Section 18-620.  OBTAINING APPROPRIATE RELIEF.  The mother, the father, and
if the mother or father has not attained the age of 18 years at the time of
the abortion, any parent of such minor, may in a civil action obtain
appropriate relief.  Such relief against the medical abortion provider may
include but not be limited to:  (a) Money damages for all injuries,
psychological and physical, occasioned by the violation of this section, and
(b) Statutory damages equal to three times the cost of the abortion; even if
any party consented to the performance of an abortion.

Section 18-621.  ENACTMENT AND SEVERABILITY.  This act shall be in full force
and effect immediately upon a majority of those voting on this Initiative
having voted "Yes" in the general election held on November 4th, 1996.
 Should any section or portion thereof be found to be unenforceable, all
remaining provisions of the Act shall remain in full force and effect.
