The Preservation of Constitutional Government was an initiated state statute that sought to establish a law that would grant the authority to license lawyers back to the State Legislature.
Summary
The text of the initiative read: "We the people of Arizona demand a maximum level of competence, extreme honesty, unyielding integrity and respect for the law from those whom are licensed to practice law. The State Bar of Arizona, under the guidance of the Supreme Court of Arizona has failed miserably to provide that level of professionalism. Therefore, we establish this law to grant the authority to license lawyers back to the State Legislature."[1]
