What and how the hell idaho

1.) Why are spores illegal in Idaho. 2.) Why are they illegal on only 1 or 2 states? 3.) What serious of lawmakers finally said make it legal all but on 2 states some history would be nice if anyone knows it!
4.) What can I do to change this? 5.) Anyone know how to become a law lobbyist and get spores legalized in my state? 6.) Is it likely to happen?

Honestly I'm not sure why spores are legal anywhere in the United States.. Seems like it should be the other way around in this day and age... I agree though that they should be legal in all states! Your best bet would be to get into some local mushroom or psychedelic appreciation groups and get involved. Need to be a part of the community to have your voice heard, right?

Honestly I'm not sure why spores are legal anywhere in the United States.. Hmm Seems like it should be the other way around in this day and age... Like with salvia laws and such? Illegal an more places than not.
I agree though that they should be legal in all states I am quick to say that I am too but perhaps there is a reason fro this?
Your best bet would be to get into some local mushroom or psychedelic appreciation groups and get involved. Like here on shroomery or somthing else? Like a mushroom pickers club? I have been searching around a bit and suggestions? Then you say voice heard what do you mean!!? Thanks for your diligent responses

Lol, do some basic research. Idaho is one of the most conservative states even going out of their way to criminalize CBD after the Federal Farm bill was passed.

Since spores are legal for "research" only, you could perhaps lobby on the basis of protecting endangered/rare/of scientific interest species? If you can find some wild shrooms growing, take pictures and construct an argument that the keeping and preserving of spore prints from them is of value to local biodiversity, ecosystems, local flora and fauna and fungi and all that.
If the local officials are conservative leaning, you could add in some stuff about liberty to obtain prints, as they aren't drugs themselves.
It's probably unlikely that changes would easily be made to such strict drug laws though.

I'll busy myself with gourmet and edibless till Piltzintecuhtli visits in spring. I think legalization is coming within the next 5-10 years to most states. They will have manditory psilocybin intravenous treatments required in all states and idaho will be just legalizing spores. I am also digging in and reading every single search result i can find on
Idaho Gymnopilus aeruginosus Gymnopilus luteofolius (link) Panaeolus cinctulus (link) Panaeolus olivaceus (link) Pluteus brunneidiscus Pholiotina cyanopus (link) Psilocybe fimetaria (link) Psilocybe pelliculosa Psilocybe silvatica
I am trying to find NAMA foray results by state but I only see the locations https://namyco.org/nama_annual_forays.php I feel I may be able to find spores for LAGM2021 https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27103145

Spores being illegal is mostly a hindrance to getting them from commercial sources. You're still not allowed to germinate them anywhere AFAIK.

If I had to choose between spores simply being illegal and the government exercising that kind of authority on the public...

Tons of people get spores in CA, GA and I'm sure ID as well. They're not legal in any of those places. Get creative and figure out how to get some from non-commercial sources. If I were you I'd remain silent.
Maybe I'm overly cautious, borderline paranoid even, but I imagine making a bunch of racket and announcing to the government that you're even interested in medicinal spores for whatever reason is just going to put you in the spotlight and get a lot of unwanted attention.
I'm not by any means trying to tell you what to do, that's just my $0.02
Cheers

That's a good point Bigfoot. There's a local guy who campaigns for election on the basis of legalising weed here, but his house was raided multiple times and he eventually went to jail. I don't think he even grew at his home, but it would have been obvious he was doing it somewhere, given his political goals...
