Amends State Constitution to require four-fifths majority vote of Legislature to submit constitutional amendment to voters during lame duck session.

ACR 82 proposes amending New Jersey's constitution to require a four-fifths majority vote (32 Senate votes and 64 Assembly votes) in both legislative chambers to submit a constitutional amendment to voters during a "lame duck" session. This session occurs between the general election for Assembly members and the start of the new Legislature (typically November to January). Currently, amendments need only a three-fifths majority (24/48 votes) or simple majority (21/41 votes) in consecutive years for submission. The bill would specifically raise the vote threshold for amendments proposed during this specific pre-election period, without changing requirements for other sessions.
