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 sixty days of a regular session, which includes the introduction of bills, acting on emergency appropriations, and holding committee hearings. 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 during the election on 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 in managing their respective agendas.
