Jim Jones

During the discussion, retired Idaho Supreme Court justice and former Idaho Attorney General Jim Jones called for the law to be amended or repealed. He said a group he is a member of, The Committee to Protect and Preserve the Idaho Constitution, is considering challenging the exemption in court. 

β€œI have looked at doing the same for the faith healing exemption. We may well do it and take it to court, but it would be so much easier if public policy was directed by the Legislature and they just repealed the exemption,” Jones said. β€œIt has resulted in the deaths of many children.”
