The proposed bill, introduced by Senator Morris and Representative Chassion, seeks to amend Article X, Section 2(B) of the Louisiana Constitution regarding the state's civil service system. The amendment aims to authorize the addition of more positions to the unclassified state civil service by law, while also stipulating that these additional positions can only be removed through legislative action. The current language is modified to include provisions for "additional officers, positions, and employees" to be added to the unclassified service, with the stipulation that their removal must also occur by law.

The amendment will be presented to the voters of Louisiana during a statewide election scheduled for April 18, 2026, or November 3, 2026, if necessary. The ballot proposition will ask electors whether they support the amendment that allows the legislature to add or remove officers, positions, and employees from the unclassified state civil service. This change is intended to provide greater flexibility and control over the state's civil service structure.
