What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

The constitution requires that all funds that accrue to the state from

forfeitures, escheats, fines for the breach of penal laws, and unrestricted grants shall

be deposited into the school fund. This proposed constitutional amendment,

proposed to the 2013 legislature on first consideration, requires that net proceeds

from the sale of vehicles that are seized by law enforcement officers from persons who

are convicted of evading arrest or of a felony offense of operating a vehicle while

intoxicated be credited to the unit of government that seized the vehicle.

A proposed constitutional amendment requires adoption by two successive

legislatures, and ratification by the people, before it can become effective.
