Constitutional amendment to change provisions related to amending, repealing, modifying, or impairing a law enacted by initiative petition

FailedFiled Jan 12, 2026

Latest Action

Indefinitely postponed

Summary

The resolution would add language to the state constitution saying the Legislature can only amend, repeal, modify, or impair a law enacted by citizen initiative after a two‑thirds vote in the Legislature and a subsequent majority vote by the public. It also creates a three‑month waiting period for most new statutes unless an emergency is declared with a super‑majority. The measure was indefinitely postponed and therefore failed.
