Bill Summary
State officeholders; dual citizenship; prohibition
AI Summary
This concurrent resolution proposes amendments to the Arizona Constitution to prohibit individuals holding citizenship in more than one country from serving as members of the state legislature or holding other specified state offices. The amendments would add a requirement that candidates for these positions must be citizens of the United States and not hold citizenship in any other country at the time of their election. This measure, if approved by Arizona voters, would change the eligibility criteria for state officeholders, building upon existing requirements related to age, residency, and duration of citizenship in the United States and Arizona.
