Vote Yes on this bill if you want higher, uniform 8% signature thresholds statewide and by district, plus an automatic vote at the next general election when lawmakers do not enact an initiative.

Organizations that support this bill may include good-government groups seeking broad consensus, election administrators favoring uniform rules, and business or taxpayer associations that prefer fewer, well-vetted initiatives.

Vote No on this bill if you want to keep lower signature requirements for submitting initiatives to the Legislature, reduce costs and barriers for grassroots campaigns, and avoid raising the hurdle to qualify measures.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include direct democracy and ballot access advocates, grassroots community and civil liberties groups, and labor or public interest coalitions that rely on citizen initiatives.
