Senate Bill No. [insert number] proposes an amendment to Article IV, Section 2 of the Montana Constitution, stipulating that only citizens of the United States are considered qualified electors. The bill removes the current language that allows "any" individual who meets certain age and residency requirements to be a qualified elector, replacing it with the more restrictive language that specifies "only a" citizen of the United States. This change aims to clarify and limit the eligibility criteria for voting in Montana.

Additionally, the bill outlines procedural requirements for its passage, stating that a two-thirds affirmative roll call vote from all members of the legislature is necessary due to the constitutional amendment nature of the proposal. It also establishes that the act will be submitted to the electorate during the general election in November 2026, with provisions for how it will appear on the ballot. The act will take effect upon approval by the voters.
