Vote Yes on this bill if you want stronger verification of petition signatures, required training for paid gatherers, hourly‑only pay for initiative and referendum drives, QR‑code access to full text, and timely email/text updates to signers.

Organizations that support this bill may include election administrators, good‑government and anti‑fraud groups, and civic tech advocates who favor standardized forms, training, and digital notifications.

Vote No on this bill if you want fewer rules on signature gathering, to allow per‑signature pay, avoid new training and form requirements that could void packets, and keep the process simpler for volunteer and grassroots efforts.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include grassroots ballot‑access coalitions, civil liberties groups, and initiative campaigns that worry the training mandate, pay limits, and paperwork will chill citizen petitioning.
