Texas did the same thing and I think they got it to a vote and it was quickly squashed.

Texans appear to be a lot smarter.

I hope they do it, and take Oregon and Washington with them.

Texas has never had such a vote.

First, California allows for citizen-led initiatives to amend its state constitution. Texas has no such provision in its state constitution; only the Legislature can propose amendments. And despite all our bluster (we're quite known for that), they've never submitted such an amendment to the citizens for vote.

Second, there was some talk about having it as a non-binding vote in a GOP primary, but it never got anywhere.
