The proposed amendment to Section 160 of the Constitution of Alabama of 2022 seeks to ensure that the compensation of district attorneys cannot be reduced during their term in office. The amendment modifies the existing language by replacing "such" with "the" and "Such" with "The," clarifying that district attorneys must be licensed to practice law in Alabama and reside in their respective circuits during their term. Additionally, it specifies that the compensation for district attorneys shall not be diminished during their official term, while also making minor grammatical and stylistic changes throughout the text.

The amendment will be presented to voters during the statewide primary election on May 26, 2026. If approved by a majority of qualified electors, it will become part of the Constitution of Alabama of 2022. The ballot will include a description of the amendment, stating its purpose to protect district attorneys' compensation from being diminished during their term, along with options for voters to indicate their support or opposition.
