Record urges vote against four constitutional amendments
The Record endorses voting against all four proposed constitutional amendments and the separate mixed beverages proposal. It argues Amendment 1 subverts voters by granting a pay raise via an Ethics Commission, Amendment 2 rewrites how amendments are proposed, Amendment 3 expands welfare spending atop federal funding concerns, and Amendment 4 would fund water quality grants with 8 percent interest. It opposes open saloons and favors licensed, not open, alcohol sales.
