In some states, voters can initiate a constitutional amendment through a process that typically involves gathering a certain number of signatures from registered voters on a petition. Once the required signatures are collected, the proposed amendment is usually placed on the ballot for a public vote during an election. If a majority of voters approve the amendment, it is then adopted into the state constitution. Additionally, state legislatures may also propose amendments, which would then need to be ratified by voters.
In constitutional amendments, the single subject style of proposing amendment is mostly applied. Where several subjects are massed together in one legislative measure the ratifying state legislatures are prone to applying the item veto to signify their preferences in any such constitution amendment proposal.

This process allows them to either approve or reject proposed amendments to the Constitution, as outlined in Article V.

This power is crucial for maintaining the balance between federal and state authority in the constitutional amendment process.
Constitutional amendments in the United States can be ratified by either three-fourths of the state legislatures or by conventions in three-fourths of the states. This process is outlined in Article V of the U.S. Constitution. The choice between the two methods is determined by Congress when proposing the amendment.
