蒙大拿团体发起了2026年的投票倡议,以保护公民通过直接投票通过法律的权力。 Montana group launches 2026 ballot initiative to protect citizens' power to pass laws via direct vote.

蒙大拿州一个新组织"蒙大拿人决定" (Montanans Decide) 正在发起2026年投票倡议, A new Montana group, Montanans Decide, is launching a 2026 ballot initiative to protect the state’s citizen-led constitutional amendment process amid growing legislative efforts to restrict it. 此举遵循了选民批准的2020年娱乐性大麻合法化的措施和2024年胎儿存活前的堕胎权,这与国家的保守领导层形成鲜明对比。 The move follows voter-approved measures legalizing recreational cannabis in 2020 and abortion rights before fetal viability in 2024, which contrast with the state’s conservative leadership. 立法者在2025年会议期间提出了多项法案,以提高批准门槛,实行更严格的签名规则,禁止外国供资,同时取消了3 700美元的申报费,认为这不符合宪法。 Lawmakers introduced multiple bills during the 2025 session to raise approval thresholds, impose stricter signature rules, and ban foreign funding, while a $3,700 filing fee was struck down as unconstitutional. 该团体认为这些行动阻碍直接民主,并寻求宪法保障,以确保选民,而不是立法者,保留制定国家法律的权力。 The group argues these actions hinder direct democracy and seeks constitutional safeguards to ensure voters, not lawmakers, retain power to shape state law.
