PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO ARTICLE IV, SECTION 9. SECTION 9. {A} *(a) except as provided in subdivision (b), a* statute shall embrace but one subject, which shall be expressed in its title. If a statute embraces a subject not expressed in its title, only the part not expressed is void. *(b) One statute enacted during each calendar year of the biennium of the legislative session may embrace more than one subject if the statute makes changes in law that are directly related to the implementation of the appropriations in the Budget Act enacted that year, that fact is expressed in its title, and the bill that enacts the statute is presented to the Governor at the same time as the bill that enacts the Budget Act. If the statute makes a change in law that is not directly related to the implementation of one or more appropriations in the Budget Act, that change is void. The Governor, while approving other portions of the bill that enacts the statute, may eliminate one or more changes in law. Changes in law eliminated shall be separately reconsidered and may be passed over the Governor's veto in the same manner as bills. (c)* A statute may not be amended by reference to its title. A section of a statute may not be amended unless the section is re-enacted as amended. ==== Source: Page 40 of the California Ballot Pamphlet for November 2, 1993, Special Statewide Election. --- "The owls are not what they seem." -Giant | [a--r--l] at [cats.ucsc.edu] ---
