The proposed joint resolution, H.J.R. No. 107, seeks to amend the Texas Constitution by adding a new section that explicitly protects the right of individuals to explore, produce, and export oil, gas, and other minerals. This amendment defines "minerals" to include substances such as uranium, sulfur, lignite, and coal, regardless of their depth. It affirms that the people have the right to engage in generally accepted practices related to these activities, while also clarifying that this right does not impede the legislature's authority to regulate such practices for public health and safety or to conserve natural resources.

The resolution stipulates that the proposed amendment will be presented to voters in an election scheduled for November 4, 2025. The ballot will allow voters to express their support or opposition to the amendment, which aims to solidify the legal framework surrounding mineral exploration and production in Texas while maintaining the legislature's regulatory powers in specific circumstances.
