Proposing a constitutional amendment establishing the Texas Redistricting Commission to redistrict the Texas Legislature, Texas congressional districts, and State Board of Education districts and revising procedures for redistricting.

HJR 26 proposes a constitutional amendment to create the Texas Redistricting Commission, which would redraw boundaries for Texas Senate, House, congressional districts, and State Board of Education seats after each U.S. census. The 14-member commission (5 majority party, 5 minority party, and 4 bipartisan members) must be appointed by December 31 following a census year and follow specific criteria for drawing districts. The bill requires the commission to conduct an open, transparent process with public input and ensure districts are single-member, while aiming to reduce legislative influence over redistricting. This would directly affect all Texas voters and elected officials by changing how district lines are determined. The amendment, if approved, would replace current legislative redistricting procedures with this new commission model.
