The Illinois Gateway Amendment was on the ballot in Illinois on November 4, 1924, as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. It was defeated. It proposed to amend the constitution to permit the legislature to propose amendments to two articles of the constitution in a session. It also proposed that no amendments be presented while the United States is at war.[1]
