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. The amendment aims to authorize the addition of more positions to the unclassified state civil service by law, while also stipulating that these positions can only be removed through legislative action. The bill outlines a specific process for submitting this amendment to the voters, with a statewide election scheduled for April 18, 2026, or November 3, 2026, if necessary.

Key changes in the bill include the insertion of language that allows for the addition of "additional officers, positions, and employees" to the unclassified service, and specifies that such additions and removals must occur through law. This amendment is designed to provide greater flexibility in managing the unclassified civil service while ensuring that any changes are subject to legislative oversight. The official ballot will present voters with the proposition to support or oppose this amendment.
