AN AMENDMENT TO THE ARKANSAS CONSTITUTION TO REPEAL THE OFFICE OF LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.
SJR 5 proposes an amendment to the Arkansas Constitution to repeal the office of Lieutenant Governor. If passed by the Arkansas General Assembly, this amendment would be submitted to the state's electors for approval or rejection at the next general election. If a majority of voters adopt the amendment, the position of Lieutenant Governor would be eliminated from the Arkansas Constitution, thereby changing the structure of the state government.
