This bill proposes an amendment to the Minnesota Constitution, specifically adding a new section to Article I that guarantees equality under the law. The proposed section, labeled as Sec. 18, states that equality shall not be denied or abridged by the state or any of its political subdivisions based on various characteristics, including race, color, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, ancestry, or national origin.

The amendment is set to be submitted to voters during the 2024 general election, and if ratified, it will take effect on January 1, 2025. The ballot question will ask voters whether they support the addition of this specific guarantee of equal rights, and it will be titled "Equal Rights Amendment" as required by Minnesota Statutes.
