Potential measures

Getting measures on the ballot
West Virginia does not provide for citizen initiatives. All ballot measures must be referred by the West Virginia State Legislature. To refer a constitutional amendment to the ballot, each chamber of the state Legislature must pass the amendment by a two-thirds vote during one legislative session.
The state Legislature's 2019 session ran from January 9 to March 9, 2019.
