Legislatures in Arizona, California, and Rhode Island will decide on legislatively referred ballot measures in June

Three states—Arizona, California, and Rhode Island—have June deadlines for referring measures to voters. In Arizona, where legislators extended their session through June 30, 31 measures have passed one chamber and are awaiting a vote in the other. California's legislature does not adjourn until August 31, but legislative measures must be certified by June 25. Rhode Island is scheduled to adjourn June 30. These deadlines could change if legislative sessions are extended. Below is an overview of what could appear on November ballots in each state.

Arizona

The Arizona State Legislature was set to adjourn on April 25 but extended the session until June 30, 2026. The legislature can refer both constitutional amendments and statutes to the ballot with a simple majority vote in each chamber. Statutes referred to voters do not require the governor's signature. Republicans control both chambers.
