The resolution, introduced by Leo Wilson as H.C.R. No. 79, emphasizes the importance of popular sovereignty and the need to protect the integrity of American elections from foreign influence and domestic corruption. It references historical warnings from the framers of the U.S. Constitution, including Alexander Hamilton and George Washington, about the dangers of foreign interference in politics. The resolution highlights the inadequacies of current election spending laws, which allow foreign entities and wealthy special interests to exert undue influence over elections, thereby undermining the voices of individual voters and the principles of self-governance.

In response to these concerns, the resolution calls on the United States Congress to propose a constitutional amendment that would empower states and Congress to regulate and limit campaign spending. It seeks to clarify the distinction between natural persons and artificial entities, such as corporations and unions, in the context of political contributions. The Texas Legislature urges that this amendment be sent to the states for ratification, emphasizing the necessity of preserving the electoral process and ensuring political equality for all citizens. The resolution also mandates that copies be forwarded to key congressional leaders and the Texas delegation for inclusion in the Congressional Record.
