HJR 169 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Proposing a constitutional amendment providing for the creation of funds to support the capital needs of educational programs offered by certain component institutions of the Texas State University System.

HJR 169 proposes a constitutional amendment to establish two special funds within the Texas State University System for capital projects. The "permanent fund" (funded by appropriations, investments, and donations) and "available fund" (funded by distributions from the permanent fund) would provide dedicated financing for capital needs like construction and equipment at specific Texas State University System institutions. This amendment would require voter approval and create a constitutional mechanism to fund capital projects outside the general state revenue fund, directly affecting eligible component institutions of the Texas State University System.
