STATE EMPLOYEES – Amends existing law to provide that attorneys of the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses shall be nonclassified employees.

This bill reclassifies attorneys working for Idaho's Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses as "nonclassified employees" under state personnel law. It directly affects those attorneys by changing their employment status from classified (subject to standard civil service rules) to nonclassified (not subject to those rules). The key mechanism is an amendment to Idaho Code Section 67-5303, adding these attorneys to the existing list of nonclassified positions. The change takes effect July 1, 2025.
