from WaPo today
Idaho Republican Gov. Brad Little left the state Tuesday. His second-in-command, empowered with executive authority in his absence, used that power to pick an old fight.
As acting governor, Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin (R) issued an executive order Tuesday afternoon banning state officials from requiring covid-19 vaccine passports from new or current employees. Little quickly promised to undo McGeachins order as soon as he returned from touring the U.S.-Mexico border with a group of fellow Republican governors.
This is the second time the states top two officials have battled after Little left the state and McGeachin seized the opportunity to issue an executive order in his absence. While Little attended a Republican governors conference in Nashville in May, McGeachin banned local governments from issuing mask mandates. Little, saying he wanted those local governments to have control over their communities, rescinded her order when he returned the next day.
