Bob,
 As I understand it, a successful ballot initiative in Idaho has 
the status of a bill passed by the legislature and signed by the gov.. 
As such, any bill  the legislature passes, it can also modify. 
So the proponents are correct in saying that the 1% Initiative could 
be modified or even repealed by the legislature. There 
are primarily political considerations that would limit their actions.
