State Legislature shows the day-to-day activities of the Idaho Legislature during an entire session. The film is an example of the achievements, values, constraints, and limitations of the democratic process. Lobbyists, lawmakers, and their constituents are seen debating and discussing the concerns of the electorate on issues that range from violence in schools, mad cow disease, and video voyeurism to illegal immigration, secondhand smoke, and the deregulation of telephone rates.
