HCR 10 Texas House · 89th Legislature, 2nd Called Session (2025)

Urging Congress to propose and submit to the states for ratification a federal balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

This concurrent resolution (HCR 10) urges the U.S. Congress to propose a constitutional amendment requiring a balanced federal budget. It does not create new law but expresses Texas's support for a constitutional change that would prevent federal deficit spending by mandating that annual government spending not exceed revenue. The resolution directs Texas officials to send copies to Congress and request its inclusion in the Congressional Record as a formal request. This is a symbolic action with no legal effect on federal budgeting.
