SB77 requires that petitions for initiated measures and constitutional amendments use a minimum font size to make them more readable for signers. The bill updates multiple sections of South Dakota law governing petition requirements and repeals several outdated petition-related statutes, consolidating and clarifying the rules for how citizens can propose changes to state law or the constitution.
