Ballot Questions
Four statewide ballot measures are certified to appear on the ballot on May 18, 2021. For more information, see the Department of State’s descriptions and Ballotpedia’s Pennsylvania 2021 Ballot Measures.
- Question 1 amends the state’s constitution to let the legislature extend or terminate a governor’s emergency declaration by resolution, which the governor cannot veto. See Ballotpedia page for details. The DelCo and Upper Chi Democratic Committees recommend voting NO.
- Question 2 amends the state’s constitution to limit a governor’s emergency declaration to 21 days unless the legislature votes to extend the order. See Ballotpedia page for details. The DelCo and Upper Chi Democratic Committees recommend voting NO.
- Question 3 adds the following section to the state’s constitution: “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania because of the race or ethnicity of the individual.” See Ballotpedia page for details. This is an obvious affirmation of human rights. The DelCo and Upper Chi Democratic Committees recommend voting YES.
- Question 4 is a statewide referendum. It would extend the state's loan program for volunteer fire companies and ambulance services to include municipal fire companies and EMS services. See Ballotpedia page for details. The DelCo and Upper Chi Democratic Committees recommend voting YES.
