[QUOTE="Colt45, post: 243184, member: 1693"] [COLOR=#666666][FONT="]Correct me if I am wrong but when the Legislature wants to amend the constitution they must pass legislation which then must be approved on a statewide ballot. So we the people have a say in changing the ND constitution. But I don't think a check-and-balance exists for constitutional amendments initiated by political committees, which now days are usually out of state billionaires and out of state interests using vague language to fool we the people into voting for something that is not in our best interest. This amendment would change that as I understand it, using the Legislature as the balance. I like it and approve of it. This does not affect ballot measures which change statute. Medical marijuana was not a constitutional change so all you dopers relax!!!! The biggest problem we have is voting the same people in over and over and over again and expecting things to change. This is really evident on the national level, we need term limits on US senate and house so bad. That would drain the swamp! [/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
