Idaho Gov. Brad Little on Oct. 6 issued an executive order that repealed an order handed down by Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin a day earlier that would have expanded a ban of COVID-19 vaccine passports in the state.

McGeachin signed a measure on Oct. 5 that expanded on Little’s previous order banning vaccine passports at state agencies. Her expanded order added public schools and universities, and added a ban on mandatory COVID-19 testing at state agencies.
