Description
PREAMBLE. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. Amends the Preamble of the California Constitution of 1879 to substitute "the Peoples within the boundaries of the Union State" for the People as the authors of the Constitution. Declares that "the Peoples" represent many faiths and they endorse, instead of establish, the 1879 constitution. Declares the constitution of 1879 is a "legislative constitution" and that the Constitution of 1849 remains the Superior Law. Declares references to "State", "California" "State of California", its agent(s) and subdivision(s) in the 1879 constitution pertain only to and are limited to only those entities created in that document. Summary of estimate by Legislative Analyst and Director of Finance of fiscal impact on state and local governments: Because of the uncertain legal impact of the measure, it is not possible to estimate its fiscal impact on state and local governments.
