Abstract
The latest chapter in the crusade to insulate the Ohio Constitution from the voters occurred in the last week when Rep. Brian Stewart launched a new version of a proposal that had died in the General Assembly.
In early December, Rep. Stewart introduced H.J.R 6 (134th General Assembly) to require a 60% vote to approve citizen-initiated state constitutional amendments and to end a policy in place since Ohio voters adopted the constitutional initiative in 1912.
