Your article states Prop 22 gives the legislature more power than normal.
> By default, a law enacted by ballot measure can only be changed by another law enacted by ballot measure.
The exception to that rule: If crafters of the initiative explicitly say otherwise.
No surprise, many ballot measures do not say otherwise. Compared to that default, Prop. 22’s high bar for amendments actually gives the Legislature more influence than the norm.
- fossuser 6y agoYeah the 7/8s is a good thing - allows fix-ups when there's near unanimous agreement a change should be made. Obviously had to be more than simple majority since its purpose is to directly override AB5 and the state legislature.
