Florida created that difference because_____.
One difference between the amendment process of the US and the Florida Constitution is that in Florida, amendments can be proposed either by the Florida Legislature or through citizen initiatives, while in the US Constitution, amendments can only be proposed by Congress or through a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of state legislatures.
Florida created that difference because it allows for direct input from its citizens and gives them the ability to shape the state's constitution through the initiative process. This reflects the state's commitment to direct democracy and ensuring that the voices of its residents are heard in the amendment process.
