The proposed constitutional amendment aims to modify Article III, section 2 of the Nebraska Constitution regarding the initiative process for enacting laws and constitutional amendments. It stipulates that for petitions filed before July 7, 2028, the Secretary of State will submit the proposed measure to voters at the next general election occurring at least four months after the petition is filed. However, for petitions filed on or after July 7, 2028, the measure will only be submitted at the next general election if the petition is filed by the second Wednesday in July of the year preceding the election. Additionally, the amendment establishes that the same measure cannot be submitted for a vote more than once every three years and outlines that conflicting measures approved in the same election will be resolved in favor of the one with the highest affirmative votes.

The amendment also emphasizes that initiative measures must contain only one subject and that the Legislature cannot amend, repeal, or modify a law enacted by initiative without a two-thirds majority vote. The proposed amendment will be presented to voters in the November 2026 general election, with the ballot language indicating that it seeks to change the deadline for filing initiative petitions for placement on the general election ballot.
