Rescinding the automatic rescission of certain applications made by the Texas Legislature to the United States Congress to call a national convention under Article V of the United States Constitution for proposing any amendment to that constitution.

HJR 22 rescinds a 2017 provision that automatically canceled Texas's applications to call a constitutional convention under Article V of the U.S. Constitution after eight years. This change prevents Texas's current applications from expiring automatically, allowing them to remain active indefinitely. The bill directly affects Texas's ability to maintain its position in the process of proposing constitutional amendments through a national convention. It modifies existing procedural rules without creating new applications or altering Texas's stance on constitutional conventions.
