COEUR d'ALENE — As this year's legislative session winds down through its final week, many bills are facing their final fate.

Some bills that weren't expected to get much attention, like SB 1389 which will allow Idahoans to carry a concealed weapon without a permit, is likely to be sent to the governor as early as today.

While other bills that seemed to be on track for passage early in the session have run into problems and don't look like they're going to make it through the process this year.

The urban renewal bill that came out of the House Interim Committee on Urban Renewal was sent to the amending order of the House to be amended, which has been done on several occasions since it was introduced early in the session.

Rep. Luke Malek, R-Coeur d'Alene, said he believes the constitutional carry bill will go up for a vote as early as today, but added it could be held until Monday.
