The amendment requires a bill that increases the individual income tax rate, corporate income tax rate, sales tax rate, or use tax rate to be adopted by at least two-thirds of the members elected to each house of the general assembly. In addition, the amendment requires a bill that establishes a new tax to be imposed by the state to be adopted by at least two-thirds of the members elected to each house of the general assembly.

A lawsuit challenging enactment of a bill subject to the two-thirds majority passage requirement must be filed no later than one year following the enactment of the bill. Finally, the amendment requires the general assembly to enact laws to implement the amendment. The resolution, if adopted, would be published and then referred to the next general assembly (90th) for adoption, before being submitted to the electorate for ratification.
