The proposed joint resolution seeks to amend the Texas Constitution to grant each house of the legislature the authority to determine its own order of business. Currently, the constitution outlines specific procedures for the first thirty days of a regular session, including the introduction of bills and resolutions and the handling of emergency matters. The amendment would allow either house to establish its order of business by a simple majority vote, rather than the current requirement of a four-fifths majority.

If approved, this constitutional amendment will be presented to voters in an election scheduled for November 4, 2025. The ballot will include a proposition allowing voters to express their support or opposition to the amendment, which aims to enhance legislative flexibility and efficiency by enabling each house to set its own agenda.
