The resolution proposes an amendment to Article VIII, Part 2, Section 2 of the Arizona Constitution, which pertains to the impeachment process for state officials. It stipulates that a person cannot be convicted of impeachment without a two-thirds majority vote from the elected senators. The amendment outlines the grounds for impeachment, which include high crimes, misdemeanors, malfeasance in office, and failure to follow or enforce state laws or court rules. The judgment in such cases would result in removal from office and disqualification from holding any future office of honor, trust, or profit in the state.
Additionally, the resolution clarifies that regardless of the outcome of the impeachment process, the individual involved remains subject to trial and punishment under the law. If approved by voters, the Secretary of State is tasked with submitting this amendment for consideration at the next general election, following the procedures outlined in Article XXI of the Arizona Constitution.
