SJR 27: Proposing a constitutional amendment regarding the membership of the State Commission on Judicial Conduct, the membership of the tribunal to review the commission's recommendations, and the authority of the commission, the tribunal, and the Texas Supreme Court to more effectively sanction judges and justices for judicial misconduct.

SJR 27 proposes a constitutional amendment to restructure the State Commission on Judicial Conduct and clarify the process for disciplining judges and justices in Texas. The amendment changes the Commission's membership, reducing citizen appointees from seven to five, requiring all members to reside in Texas, and prohibiting members from holding a judgeship in the same court type as another Commission member. It also updates disciplinary procedures to include immediate suspension for judges facing felony indictments or misconduct-related misdemeanor charges, while expanding the grounds for sanctions to include violations of judicial conduct rules or actions discrediting the judiciary. These changes aim to streamline the process for addressing judicial misconduct while maintaining constitutional requirements.

SJR 59: Proposing a constitutional amendment providing for the creation of funds to support the capital needs of educational programs offered by the Texas State Technical College System.

SJR 59 proposes a constitutional amendment to create two dedicated funds for Texas State Technical College System campuses: a permanent infrastructure fund for long-term capital projects and an available workforce education fund for immediate equipment and facility needs. This bill repeals a current funding limitation, allowing the system to access annual appropriations meant for public higher education institutions without restrictions. The funds would be financed through existing state appropriations, investments, and donations, managed by the comptroller, to support campus buildings, equipment, and educational program infrastructure. The amendment would directly affect Texas State Technical College System campuses by providing a dedicated, stable funding source for their capital requirements.

HB 150: Relating to the establishment of the Texas Cyber Command and the transfer to it of certain powers and duties of the Department of Information Resources.

HB 150 establishes the Texas Cyber Command as a new state agency under the Government Code, effective September 1, 2025. The bill transfers specific cybersecurity responsibilities from the Department of Information Resources to this new command, focusing on protecting critical infrastructure such as energy systems, water facilities, health care, and transportation networks.
