This bill proposes an amendment to the Minnesota Constitution, specifically article XI, section 5, to authorize the state to incur debt for the purpose of improving digital infrastructure. The amendment will allow the state to purchase, install, maintain, and upgrade digital infrastructure, including hardware and software systems used by state constitutional officers, executive branch agencies, the legislature, legislative agencies, and the state courts. This addition is marked as section (j), which replaces the previous section (j) with a new section (k) that allows political subdivisions to engage in similar works and contract debt for those purposes.

The proposed amendment will be submitted to voters during the 2026 general election, with the question asking whether the Minnesota Constitution should be amended to permit the state to use general obligation debt for enhancing its digital infrastructure. This initiative aims to modernize the state's technological capabilities and ensure that government operations are efficient and effective in the digital age.
