House Bill 222 passed the House by a vote of 56-14 and was opposed by North Idaho House members. It provides funds to partially reimburse the university for increased campus security and Idaho State Police patrols, student counseling, a vigil and other expenses in the wake of the murders of Ethan Chapin, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Madison Mogen.
