The resolution, known as Jocelyn's Law, proposes a constitutional amendment to the Texas Constitution that mandates the denial of bail for illegal aliens charged with specific felony offenses. It defines an "illegal alien" as someone who entered the U.S. without proper inspection or who has failed to maintain lawful immigration status. The amendment outlines a list of serious offenses, including murder, aggravated kidnapping, and various sexual crimes, for which bail would be denied if a judge determines there is probable cause to believe the individual committed the crime.

If passed, this amendment would be submitted to voters in an election scheduled for November 4, 2025. The ballot will allow voters to express their support or opposition to the proposition, which aims to enhance public safety by restricting bail for illegal aliens accused of serious felonies. The resolution emphasizes that the denial of bail does not prevent the lawful transfer of custody of the individual involved.
