It is more difficult to amend the U. S. Constitution than to amend the Florida Constitution.

Explanation: The U.S. Constitution requires a high threshold (proposal by two-thirds of both Houses of Congress or a convention called by two-thirds of state legislatures, then ratification by three-fourths of the states). Florida’s Constitution can be amended more readily — by citizen initiative, by the legislature (with a supermajority), or by a commission — followed by voter approval in a statewide referendum (simple majority), making amendment comparatively easier.
