23. This November, Michigan voters will decide a constitutional amendment that will be on the ballot. I would like to read that
proposal to you.

A proposal to amend the state constitution to require annual public financial disclosure reports by legislators and other state
officers and limit service of a legislator to 12 years. The proposed constitutional amendment would require members of the
legislature, the governor, the lieutenant government, the secretary of state, and the attorney general to file annual public
financial disclosure reports reporting assets, liabilities, income, positions held, future employment agreements, gifts, travel
reimbursements and other payments. Require the legislation to implement but not limit or restrict the reporting requirements.

Reduce current term limits for state representatives and state senators to a 12-year total limit in any combination between the
house of representatives and the senate, with the exception that a person elected in the senate in 2022 may be elected the
number of times allowed when that person became a candidate. Will you vote yes or no on this proposal? IF DON’T KNOW,

23. This November, Michigan voters will decide a constitutional amendment that will be on the ballot. I would like to read that
proposal to you.

A proposal to amend the state constitution to require annual public financial disclosure reports by legislators and other state
officers and limit service of a legislator to 12 years. The proposed constitutional amendment would require members of the
legislature, the governor, the lieutenant government, the secretary of state, and the attorney general to file annual public
financial disclosure reports reporting assets, liabilities, income, positions held, future employment agreements, gifts, travel
reimbursements and other payments. Require the legislation to implement but not limit or restrict the reporting requirements.

Reduce current term limits for state representatives and state senators to a 12-year total limit in any combination between the
house of representatives and the senate, with the exception that a person elected in the senate in 2022 may be elected the
number of times allowed when that person became a candidate.

Will you vote yes or no on this proposal? IF DON’T KNOW, WHICH WAY DO YOU LEAN?
