The proposed resolution seeks to amend the Arkansas Constitution by introducing a "Victims Bill of Rights," which aims to establish and protect the rights of individuals who are victims of violent and sexual crimes. This amendment defines a victim and outlines their rights throughout the criminal justice process, including the right to be treated with dignity, to be informed about the status of the accused, to attend court proceedings, and to confer with the prosecution. Additionally, it ensures that victims can refuse certain requests from defendants, maintain the confidentiality of their home addresses, and receive restitution before court fines are paid.

The amendment also clarifies that the rights granted to victims do not create grounds for dismissing criminal proceedings or altering convictions and that it does not establish a cause of action for damages against the state or its subdivisions. If approved by a majority of voters in the next general election, the amendment will take effect on January 1, 2027. The resolution emphasizes the importance of safeguarding victims' rights while ensuring that these rights do not infringe upon the legal processes of the criminal justice system.
