The proposed joint resolution seeks to amend the Texas Constitution by adding a new section that would restrict the legislature from reducing the proportion of a demographic group that is a minority in the state when apportioning congressional districts. This restriction applies specifically to districts where a majority of residents belong to such a minority group and that have been apportioned at least once since the last U.S. decennial census. The amendment aims to ensure that the representation of minority groups is maintained in congressional districts, thereby promoting fair representation.

If passed, the constitutional amendment will be presented to voters in an election scheduled for May 2, 2026. The ballot will include a proposition allowing voters to express their support or opposition to the amendment, which emphasizes the importance of not diminishing the representation of minority groups in congressional districts during the apportionment process, except as required by federal law.
