Joint Resolution; Oklahoma Constitution; convention; delegates; procedures; submission to voters; ballot title; filing.
This Oklahoma joint resolution calls for a Constitutional Convention to review, amend, or replace the state Constitution, with delegates consisting of current state legislators who cannot be federal officials. The convention will convene on January 5, 2027, and include a Commission of six officials to gather public input before delegate selection, while delegates receive only travel reimbursement rather than a salary. Proposed changes must be approved by a two-thirds vote to begin consideration, then a simple majority to adopt, and will be submitted to voters at the November 2028 general election for final approval or rejection. The resolution requires the measure itself to be voted on by the public before it can take effect, ensuring citizens approve the convention process before it begins.
