Resolution 27, introduced by Goodwin, directs the Secretary of State to present a proposed amendment to Section 10 of Article VI of the Oklahoma Constitution to the public for approval or rejection. The amendment aims to clarify voting procedures for the Pardon and Parole Board, updating the language and structure of the existing provisions. Key changes include stipulations regarding the appointment of alternate members to the Board, the handling of tie votes on clemency recommendations, and the requirement for alternate members to be from the same appointing authority as the absent member.

The proposed amendment also outlines the responsibilities of the Pardon and Parole Board, including the authority to grant parole for nonviolent offenses and the Governor's power to grant clemency after a favorable recommendation from the Board. Additionally, it mandates that the Governor and the Board report to the Legislature on clemency actions taken. The resolution includes a ballot title for the public vote, summarizing the key aspects of the amendment and asking voters whether they approve or reject the proposed changes.
