The proposed joint resolution seeks to amend the Texas Constitution by establishing the Texas Redistricting Commission, which will be responsible for redistricting the United States House of Representatives and the Texas Legislature. This amendment would add Section 28a to Article III of the Texas Constitution, granting the Commission the authority to adopt redistricting plans for these legislative bodies. The resolution stipulates that no districts for these bodies may be established or altered except as outlined in this new section. Additionally, it mandates that the Texas Legislature will create laws governing the Commission's composition and operations.

The resolution also includes provisions for the Judicial Districts Board, amending Article V, Section 7a, to clarify the process for judicial district reapportionment. If the Judicial Districts Board fails to complete a statewide reapportionment following the federal decennial census, the Texas Redistricting Commission will step in to fulfill this duty. The resolution specifies that the new Commission will take effect on January 1, 2030, and the Legislative Redistricting Board will be abolished on that date. The proposed amendment will be presented to voters in an election scheduled for May 2, 2026, allowing them to decide on the establishment of the Texas Redistricting Commission.
