This bill proposes amending the state constitution to require that only U.S. citizens may vote in elections. It would replace the current voting eligibility language with a specific provision stating "Only citizens shall be entitled to vote," while maintaining existing requirements that voters must be at least 18 years old and residents of the state and their local area for 30 days prior to an election. The key change directly affects voting eligibility by restricting the right to vote to citizens, removing any existing non-citizen voting provisions. If passed, this would be a constitutional change, not a temporary law, requiring approval through the standard amendment process.
