The resolution proposed by Senator Blessing seeks to amend Sections 1b and 1g of Article II of the Ohio Constitution, altering the process for statutes proposed by initiative petition. The amendment stipulates that if a petition signed by at least three percent of the electors is filed with the Secretary of State at least ten days before a session of the General Assembly, the proposed law must be considered by the Assembly. If the Assembly does not pass the law within four months, or if it is passed in an amended form, the law will be submitted to voters for approval or rejection. Additionally, any law approved by voters will not be subject to gubernatorial veto and cannot be amended or repealed by the General Assembly for two years unless a supermajority vote is achieved.

Furthermore, the resolution outlines the requirements for petition signatures, including the need for signers to provide their residence details and the process for verifying signatures. It establishes timelines for challenges to petitions and mandates that any law or constitutional amendment approved by voters cannot be deemed unconstitutional due to insufficient signatures. The resolution also specifies that the ballot language for proposed laws must be clear and allows for arguments for and against each measure to be published prior to the election. If adopted by a majority of voters, the amendments will take immediate effect, repealing the existing provisions of Sections 1b and 1g.
