The resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to allow the State of Arkansas to be sued as a defendant in state courts under specific circumstances. Currently, the Arkansas Constitution prohibits the state from being made a defendant in its courts. The amendment seeks to change this by permitting legal actions against the state if they assert violations of the United States Constitution or the Arkansas Constitution, or if they are authorized by Arkansas law. This change would apply to all public entities within the state, including state-supported institutions of higher education.

If approved by a majority of voters in the next general election, the amendment would take effect on November 6, 2024. The resolution includes a ballot title and popular name for the amendment, which emphasizes its purpose of allowing citizens to enforce their constitutional rights against the state in court.
