Pennsylvania House adjourns, package of constitutional amendments won’t appear on the May ballot

Pennsylvania House of Representatives Pennsylvania House of Representatives Department of State Mark Rozzi

The Pennsylvania House of Representatives adjourned on January 24, 2023, affecting a package of three constitutional amendments that could have appeared on ballot for May 16, 2023. 

According to the Department of State, the Pennsylvania General Assembly needed to have the amendments passed by Friday, January 27, to appear on the May ballot. The deadline in the Pennsylvania Constitution to pass and advertise the proposed amendments is February 16, and according to the Department of State, the Legislature needed to have already passed the package of amendments in order to give the newspapers time to advertise them.

The next possible election for the amendments to be placed on the ballot for Pennsylvania voters is the November 2023 general election.
