The resolution proposes an amendment to the West Virginia State Constitution, known as "Amendment No. 1" or the "Initiative, Referendum, and Recall Amendment." This amendment aims to enhance the legislative powers of the citizens by granting registered voters the ability to initiate legislation, propose constitutional amendments, reject newly enacted laws through referendums, and recall elected officials. The resolution outlines the necessary procedures for these actions, including the collection of signatures for petitions and the timelines for conducting elections, ensuring that these processes remain accessible and straightforward for the public.

Additionally, the proposed amendment will be presented to West Virginia voters for ratification or rejection during the general election in 2028. It emphasizes the importance of empowering citizens in the legislative process while maintaining clear guidelines for initiating recalls and referendums. By solidifying these rights, the resolution seeks to reinforce the democratic engagement of West Virginia's citizens and ensure their ability to participate directly in shaping their government.
