Assembly Constitutional AmendmentIntroduced

ACA 6: Slavery.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified August 25, 2025

What ACA 6 does, verified August 25, 2025

The proposed constitutional amendment aims to prohibit slavery in all forms in the state of California. This measure would clarify that it does not prohibit the awarding of credits to an incarcerated person who voluntarily accepts a work assignment by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The amendment would amend Section 6 of Article I of the state constitution to explicitly prohibit slavery, while also ensuring that individuals in correctional facilities can participate in work programs.
