Summary
The proposal would restructure the commission that screens judicial candidates, set new rules for who can serve on it, and make the state Senate confirm any new Supreme Court justice. It also lets the legislature define what counts as legal practice for eligibility. The amendment must be approved by two‑thirds of both houses and then by voters.
