The resolution, introduced by Bucy as H.J.R. No. 11, proposes a constitutional amendment to the Texas Constitution that mandates the state to expand Medicaid eligibility to individuals who qualify for federal matching funds under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA). Specifically, it seeks to add Section 74 to Article XVI, ensuring that all applicants for medical assistance who meet the criteria set forth by the ACA will receive support from the state.

Additionally, the resolution includes a temporary provision that outlines the implementation timeline for this amendment. It states that the new section will take effect on January 1, 2026, and will remain in effect until January 1, 2027. The proposed amendment will be presented to Texas voters during the election on November 4, 2025, allowing them to vote on whether to support the expansion of Medicaid eligibility as outlined in the resolution.
