The resolution proposes an amendment to Article I of the Washington State Constitution, which will be presented to voters in the next general election. This amendment establishes the right of all people, including future generations, to a clean and healthy environment, encompassing pure water, clean air, healthy ecosystems, and a stable climate. It also designates the state and its political subdivisions as trustees of the state's natural resources, mandating them to conserve and protect these resources for the benefit of all citizens, including those yet to be born.

Additionally, the amendment asserts that the rights to a clean environment are inherent, inalienable, and indefeasible, placing them alongside other protected rights. It emphasizes the state's obligation to protect these rights equitably for all individuals, regardless of race, ethnicity, tribal membership, gender, geography, or wealth. The resolution mandates that the Secretary of State publish notice of this proposed constitutional amendment in legal newspapers throughout the state in the weeks leading up to the election.
