Proposing a constitutional amendment specifying the authority of the attorney general to prosecute any criminal offense prescribed by the laws of this state.

HJR 150 proposes a constitutional amendment to clarify that the Texas Attorney General has the authority to prosecute any criminal offense under state law, alongside local county or district attorneys. This would establish the Attorney General's concurrent jurisdiction with local prosecutors for all criminal cases, meaning both offices could independently pursue charges. The amendment directly affects the Attorney General's office and local district attorneys, as it would formalize their shared authority in criminal prosecutions. If approved by voters in 2025, it would change the Texas Constitution to explicitly state this shared responsibility.
