Bill > SJR24

This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Arkansas Constitution focusing on ballot titles for initiated measures, which are proposals that can be directly put to voters through a petition process. The key provision aims to improve the clarity and readability of ballot titles by establishing specific guidelines: ballot titles must be clear, concise, and limited to a maximum of 500 words. The resolution would be submitted to Arkansas voters at the next general election for Representatives and Senators, and if a majority of voters approve the amendment, it would become part of the state constitution. The goal appears to be making ballot language more accessible and easier to understand for voters considering proposed measures, potentially helping citizens make more informed decisions during the voting process.
