BOISE — The Idaho Senate has halted the advancement of a bill that would have required law enforcement agencies to apply for cooperative agreements with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Following the bill’s passage out of the House on Thursday, Sen. Mark Harris, R-Soda Springs, motioned to not concur with the House’s amendments to the legislation, preventing it from advancing because it violates Senate Rule 28(D). Under this rule, a bill cannot be amended to remove or incorporate provisions of another bill already pending in the Senate.
