Const. Amend./Judicial Standards Commission

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to establish the Judicial Standards Commission in North Carolina's Constitution and changes how it operates. The amendment would require the Commission to have judges, lawyers, and non-lawyer citizens as members, and would make disciplinary hearings and sanctions public instead of confidential.

Restoring Separation of Powers & Leg. Transp

This bill proposes two constitutional amendments to be voted on in November 2026. The first amendment would limit the General Assembly's power to reorganize executive branch functions in ways that weaken the Governor's authority to execute state laws. The second amendment would require bills to address only one subject (with exceptions for budget and tax bills) and mandate at least 48 hours of public notice and bill text availability before final passage.

Const. Amend./Supreme Court Ethics

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment that would require North Carolina Supreme Court Justices to recuse themselves from cases where they have financial interests, personal relationships with parties involved, or previously sponsored the law being challenged. It would also require Justices to publicly disclose large financial transactions ($10,000+), non-salary income, and who funds their travel.
