Explanation By Committee Designated Pursuant to ORS 2M.210 This measure proposes to amend a section of the Oregon Constitution which pertains to registration and voting. If passed, it would do two things: (1) Remove from the constitution the requirement that every voter must be able (except for physical disability) to read and write the English language. (2) Lower the minimum voting age from 21 to 18 years of age for all elections in Oregon. These changes are proposed to bring Oregon's constitution into conformity with the federal constitution. The United States Supreme Court has declared literacy requirements unconstitutional, and the 26th amendment to the federal constitution supersedes Oregon's constitution in matters where the two conflict. Therefore, a vote of the people is necessary in order to bring into conformity Oregon's constitution. The outcome of the vote on this amendment is immaterial. If the measure is not approved by the voters, Oregon will still be required to comply with the federal constitution. WANDA MAYS, Portland WILLlAM J. MOSHOFSKY, Portland MARY NEELY, Lake Oswego 6 Official Vot61's' Pamphlet Measure No. 1 Eliminates Literacy Requirement: Lowers Votbag Age Argument In Favor By Legislative Committee Pursuant to ORS 255.421 ( 3) Ballot Measure Number 1 proposes amendments to section 2, Article II and section 6, Article VUI of the Oregon Constitution. Its effect would be to lower the voting age to 18 years of age and to delete the English literacy requirement for voting. Oregon ratified the new XXVI Amendment to the U. S. Constitution in June of 197L That amendment provided for voting by persons 18 years of age and older. The proposed amendment to the Oregon Constitution is, thus, only a further affirmation of the right now granted by the U. S. Constitution. The U.S. SUpreme Court ruled in 1970 that the Federal Voting Rights Act of 1965, as amended in 1970, could constitutionally prohibit English literacy tests as prerequisites to voting. That law is enforceable against the states. In or­ der to comply with the court mandate, the legislature has proposed the further amendments contained in Ballot Measure Number 1. Oregon has long been a leader among the states in extending the full rights of citizenship to all of its qualified residents. We should do no less now with the newly granted voting rights to young people and to those minorities whose inability to meet an EngUsh ~ requirement might result in improper dis­ enfranchisement. Vote "YES" on Ballot Measure Number 1 to show that Ore­ gonians truly believe and reaffirm in full measure those rights protected by the U. S. Constitution. SENATOR .JASON BOE REPRESENTATIVE RICHARD EYMANN REPRESENTATIVE LEIGH JOHNSON Primm11 Election, May 23, 1972 7 Measure No. 1 Eliminates Literacy Requirement: Lowers Voting Age Argument In Opposition Submitted by The Women's Legislative Council LOOK CLOSELY AT THIS PACKAGED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT A United States Constitutional Amendment to lower the voting age to 18 years has been ratified, BUT nothing in that Amendment removes the re­ quirement that voters be able to read and write. BALLOT MEASURE 1 REMOVES THE REQUIREMENT THAT A VOTER BE LITERATE-THAT IS, ABLE TO READ THE BALLOT AND SIGN THE POLLBOOK. • The privilege of voting should not be extended to those who have not bothered to learn to read and write their country's language. In order to become citizens, aliens are required to know English. Citi­ zenship tests are given in English. • Millions of taxpayers dollars are spent on education. There is no valid excuse for illiteracy in Oregon today. • It is not reasonable to permit those who can't read or write to vote. Who will tell them how to vote? DON'T BE MISLED The matter of lowering the voting age has been settled. THE ISSUE in Ballot Measure 1 is the MATTER OF LITERACY AS A VOTING QUALI­ FICATION. KEEP A LITERATE ELECTORATE VOTE "NO" ON MEASURE 1 Women's Legislative Council, P.O. Box 19353, Portland, Oregon 97219 8 Official Voters' Pamphlet Measure No. 1 Eliminates Literacy Requirement: Lowers Voting Age Be It Resolved by the Legislative Assembly of the State of Oregon: Paragraph 1. Section 2, Article II, and section 6, Article Vffi, Oregon Con­ stitution, are amended to read: Sec. 2. (1) Every citizen of the United States is entitled to vote in all elections not otherwise provided for by this Constitution if such citizen: (a) Is [.f1]18 years of age or older; . (b) Has resided in this state during the six months immediately preceding the election, except that provision may be made by law to permit a person who has resided in this state less than six months immediately preceding the elec­ tion, but who is otherwise qualified under this subsection, to vote in the election for candidates for nomination or election for President or Vice President of the United States or elector of President and Vice President of the United States; and (c) Is registered prior to the election in the manner provided by law.
