The resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to abolish the state lottery in Texas. It seeks to amend Section 47(a) of Article III of the Texas Constitution, which currently allows for certain lotteries and gift enterprises, by prohibiting all lotteries except those specifically authorized. Additionally, it calls for the repeal of Section 47(e), which pertains to the state lottery.
If passed, this amendment will be presented to voters during the election scheduled for November 4, 2025. The ballot will include a proposition allowing voters to express their support or opposition to the constitutional amendment aimed at abolishing the state lottery.
