Utah Lawmakers Propose Ballot Measure Changes
News summary

Utah's Republican-controlled legislature has approved a constitutional amendment for the November ballot that would grant lawmakers the power to alter or repeal citizen-initiated measures, particularly in response to a recent state Supreme Court ruling regarding anti-gerrymandering efforts. If passed, this amendment would enable legislators to rewrite past ballot measures, including those that established an independent redistricting commission. Similarly, South Carolina voters will decide on an amendment affirming that only U.S. citizens can vote, which critics argue could disproportionately affect marginalized communities. In Trinidad and Tobago, the ruling party's recent convention focused on constitutional reform has been criticized as politically motivated, with analysts urging that the process should reflect national perspectives rather than partisan interests. Meanwhile, Kentucky voters will have the opportunity to vote on two constitutional amendments aimed at strengthening election security and enhancing educational flexibility for students. These developments highlight ongoing debates across multiple states concerning voting rights and constitutional authority.
