This bill proposes separate and distinct amendments to the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, providing for an "economic bill of rights." The key provisions include: (1) the right to a living wage to reasonably support oneself and one's family; (2) the right to affordable and accessible healthcare and the opportunity to achieve good physical and mental health; (3) the right to safe, efficient, and reliable transportation infrastructure; and (4) the right to safe and healthy working conditions. The bill outlines the process for the Secretary of the Commonwealth to comply with the advertising requirements and submit these proposed amendments to the qualified electors of the Commonwealth as four separate and distinct ballot questions.
