The resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to increase the voter approval threshold required for school district bond elections in Texas. Specifically, it seeks to amend Section 3 of Article VII of the Texas Constitution by introducing a new subsection (e-1). This new provision stipulates that, contrary to the existing requirement of a simple majority, any ad valorem tax levied for the payment of bonds issued by a school district must now receive approval from three-fifths of the qualified voters participating in the election.
If passed, this amendment will be presented to voters during 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 aims to enhance the financial accountability and decision-making process regarding school district funding through bond elections.
