** Ballot measures on ballot measures—previewing five measures that could change the initiative process this year
------------------------------------------------------------



Here’s a rundown of the five measures that would change statewide initiative procedures:
1. Arkansas Issue 2 ([link removed]:) : Would amend the Arkansas Constitution to require a 60% vote to adopt constitutional amendments (legislatively referred and citizen-initiated) and citizen-initiated state statutes. The measure would not affect veto referendums.
2. Arizona Proposition 128 ([link removed]:) : Would amend the Arizona Constitution to allow the Legislature to amend or repeal voter-approved ballot initiatives if either the Arizona Supreme Court or the U.S. Supreme Court has declared any portion invalid.
3. Arizona Proposition 129 ([link removed]:) : Would amend the Arizona Constitution to require that citizen-initiated ballot measures have a single subject.
4. Arizona Proposition 132 ([link removed]:) : Would amend the Arizona Constitution to require a 60% vote to pass ballot measures to approve taxes.
5. Colorado Proposition GG ([link removed]:) : Would require the ballot titles and fiscal impact summaries for initiatives related to income taxes to include information on how the change would affect income taxes on different categories of income.
