False: The South Australian government put its voice to parliament in legislation but did not change the state's constitution. The claim South Australian’s voice to parliament did not include a change to the constitution is false. The First Nations Voice Bill 2023 included an amendment to the South Australian Constitution Act 1934, which recognises the importance of listening to Indigenous voices. Law experts told AAP FactCheck that unlike the Commonwealth constitution, state constitutions are pieces of legislation and can be amended without a public vote.
