What’s in it

This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa that provides the right of the people to donate, convey, devise, or otherwise transfer their private property to any public entity or nonprofit organization. The resolution, if adopted, would be published and then referred to the next general assembly (92nd) for adoption before being submitted to the electorate for ratification.
