HJ 2 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

RESOLUTION PROPOSING AN AMENDMENT TO THE STATE CONSTITUTION TO ALLOW FOR DIRECT INITIATIVES AND REFERENDA.

This resolution (HJ 2) proposes amending the state constitution to grant voters the power to directly propose new laws (initiatives) and vote on laws passed by the legislature (referendums). If approved by voters, it would allow electors to bypass the legislature for specific policy changes. The bill establishes a new constitutional process for direct voter action but does not alter existing laws or voting procedures. It directly affects all eligible voters by expanding their role in lawmaking.
