The resolution proposes an amendment to Article VI, Section 38 of the Arizona Constitution, which pertains to the retention elections of justices and judges. It outlines the process for justices and judges of the supreme court and intermediate appellate courts to file a declaration of candidacy for retention in office. The amendment specifies that these declarations must be filed with the Secretary of State or the appropriate county clerk, depending on the court level, at least 90 days but no more than 120 days before the general election preceding the expiration of their term.

Additionally, the resolution details the format of the ballot for retention votes, which will include a nonpartisan designation and a simple "Yes" or "No" option for voters. If a majority votes "No," a vacancy will occur at the end of the term, while a "Yes" vote allows the justice or judge to remain in office for another term. The resolution also states that if a justice or judge fails to file the required declaration, their office will become vacant at the end of their term. The Secretary of State is tasked with submitting this proposition to voters at the next general election.
