Ohio SJR2 proposes to amend the state constitution to modify the process for statutes proposed by initiative petition.

Ohio SJR2 proposes constitutional amendments to Sections 1b and 1g of Article II, altering the process for statutes proposed by initiative petition. The changes include setting specific timelines for the secretary of state to determine the sufficiency of signatures and for the Ohio Supreme Court to rule on challenges. It mandates that initiative petitions be submitted to the General Assembly first and establishes conditions for supplementary petitions. If approved by voters, the changes would take immediate effect upon adoption, repealing existing provisions.
