With all that is going on in Madison Wi, with regards to Idaho law. Does Idaho have the Stop and Identify law? Or can we refuse to provide ID until RAS has been established.

Someone should actually read the codes involved. Utah's code specifically states that an officer must have RAS:

77-7-15. Authority of peace officer to stop and question suspect -- Grounds.
A peace officer may stop any person in a public place when he has a reasonable suspicion to believe he has committed or is in the act of committing or is attempting to commit a public offense and may demand his name, address and an explanation of his actions.
