Initiative petitions; Initiative Petitions Act of 2025; effective date.

HB 1633 amends Oklahoma's Constitution to require 60% voter approval for any constitutional amendment proposed through an initiative petition process, instead of a simple majority. This directly affects citizens and groups seeking to propose constitutional changes via initiative petitions, as it raises the approval threshold from 50% to 60% of votes cast. The bill modifies Section 3 of Article V to specify that initiatives must secure 60% approval to take effect, while keeping the same process for filing petitions and ballot titles. It does not change the initiative filing procedures or the requirement for the Secretary of State to submit the measure to voters.
