The resolution SCR1002 proposes an amendment to the Arizona Constitution that would require a 60 percent approval from voters at statewide elections for any initiative or referendum aimed at amending the Constitution, as opposed to the current requirement of a simple majority. This change is intended to enhance the threshold for constitutional amendments, thereby ensuring that such significant changes reflect a broader consensus among the electorate. The resolution outlines the process for submitting this proposition to voters at the next general election, contingent upon the approval of the Governor.

Additionally, the resolution makes technical and conforming changes to existing provisions regarding the initiative and referendum processes in Arizona. It emphasizes that any proposed amendments to the Constitution, particularly those involving tax approvals, would require this heightened level of voter support. The resolution does not anticipate any fiscal impact on the state General Fund and aims to reinforce the legislative framework surrounding citizen-initiated measures and their subsequent approval processes.
