The resolution proposes an amendment to the West Virginia Constitution, known as "Amendment No. 1" or the "Initiative, Referendum, and Recall Amendment." This amendment aims to enhance the legislative powers of the citizens and the Legislature by establishing the rights of registered voters to initiate legislation, propose constitutional amendments, reject laws passed by the Legislature, and recall elected officials. The process would involve a petition system, allowing voters to gather signatures and subsequently vote on these proposals in general or primary elections. The resolution also outlines the necessary procedures for initiating these actions, including the required number of signatures and timelines for filing petitions.

Additionally, the amendment mandates that the Legislature create laws to govern the initiative, referendum, and recall processes, ensuring they remain accessible and not overly complicated for the public. The proposed amendment will be presented to voters for ratification or rejection during the next general election in 2028, reinforcing the commitment to uphold the democratic rights of West Virginia's citizens and ensuring that they have a direct say in their governance.
