Constitution; amend to provide that the people have the right to propose new statutes and amend or repeal existing statutes.

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to give Mississippi voters the direct power to propose new laws or amend/repeal existing laws through citizen initiatives. It would require petitions signed by 10% of active registered voters (with limits on signatures per congressional district) and mandate that sponsors identify funding sources to cover implementation costs without reducing state funding. The initiative process would be restricted from affecting constitutional amendments, life rights, retirement systems, or local laws, and would require fiscal analysis to appear on ballots. If approved by voters, it would allow citizens to bypass the legislature on specific policy changes, with up to three initiatives per ballot and a 90-day notice rule for election placement.
