Don’t let politicians override the will of the people
Utah’s Constitution protects our right against government overreach, it gives the people a real check on politicians.
Now establishment politicians are pushing a proposal to take that power away from you.
It would allow them to override your vote and ignore the will of the people.
A handful of politicians having ultimate say is not “reform.” It’s a power grab.
And once it’s gone, it’s gone for good.
This new legislation would allow politicians to:
- Override any voter-approved ballot initiatives they don’t like.
- Put politicians’ interests above the Constitution.
- Weaken our constitutional protection against overreach.
- Ignore election results and substitute their own judgment for yours.
- Lock in power with no accountability.
- Centralize power in the hands of a legislative supermajority.
- Make your vote conditional on political approval.
Send a message to legislators telling them to reject this proposal and defend Utah’s Constitution.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Real reform protects voters and strengthens accountability. This proposal does the opposite. It shifts power away from the people and hands it to politicians, letting them override voter-approved initiatives after elections are over.
Yes, but not over the people’s constitutional right to citizen-led initiatives. That process exists specifically to check government overreach when politicians refuse to act. This proposal removes that safeguard.
No. Once this power exists, it can be used anytime politicians dislike the outcome. The proposal does not limit when or how often lawmakers can override voters.
Because citizen-led initiatives work. They allow voters to bypass entrenched interests and hold government accountable. Some politicians want to change the rules so that never happens again.
Voters lose their strongest check on government power. Politicians gain permanent control. And once that balance is gone, it cannot be easily restored.
