Current Bill Summary

SJR 56 - Under current law, an initiative petition proposing a constitutional amendment must contain a single subject and matters properly connected therewith. This constitutional amendment, if approved by the voters, would additionally stipulate that an initiative petition proposing a constitutional amendment contains a single subject only if it does not extend beyond one sole purpose and only contains additions or changes that are necessary to effectuate a single legislative change.

This constitutional amendment is identical to SJR 12 (2023).
