Joint Resolution No. 1 - PASSED
Shall the Pennsylvania Constitution be amended to permit the enactment of legislation authorizing local taxing authorities to exclude from taxation an amount based on the assessed value of homestead property, with the limitations that the exclusions shall not exceed one-half of the median assessed value of all homestead property within the taxing jurisdiction and that the taxing authority may not increase the millage rate of its tax on real property to pay for these exclusions? |
Joint Resolution No. 2 - PASSED
Shall the Pennsylvania Constitution be amended to require a unanimous recommendation of the Board of Pardons before the Governor can pardon or commute the sentence of an individual sentenced in a criminal case to death or life imprisonment, to require only a majority vote of the Senate to approve the Governor's appointments to the Board, and to substitute a crime victim for an attorney and a corrections expert for penologist as Board members? |
Joint Resolution No. 3 - PASSED
Shall the Pennsylvania Constitution be amended to require the enactment of legislation permitting absentee voting by qualified electors who at the time of an election may be absent from the municipality where they reside because their duties, occupation or business require them to be elsewhere, which would change the current law permitting absentee voting by such qualified electors only when they are absent from the entire county where they reside? |
