The Measures
SB 518 · 2024
Created a $750 filing fee, lengthened the protest period from 10 to 20 days, and required signatures to match four of five voter-registration points instead of three.
Perspective →HB 1105 · 2024
Added a separate $1,000 filing fee and extended the window to challenge a petition from 10 days to 90.
Perspective →SB 1027 · 2025
Capped the share of petition signatures that may come from any one county and added new signature-gatherer and disclosure requirements.
Perspective →What It Cost You
Together, these three laws added $1,750 in new fees, a 90-day window for opponents to challenge your petition, a stricter signature-match rule, and county-by-county caps — each one further diluting a right the Constitution calls ours: to participate fully in shaping our own destiny.
