Proposing a constitutional amendment relating to the determination of a quorum of the senate or house of representatives.

HJR 37 proposes amending the Texas Constitution to change the quorum requirement for the Texas Senate and House of Representatives from two-thirds to a simple majority of members. This would allow either chamber to conduct business with just over half its members present, rather than needing two-thirds attendance. The amendment must be approved by voters in a May 2026 election, with the ballot asking whether "a majority of the members... constitutes a quorum." If passed, this change would directly affect how Texas legislative sessions operate by lowering the threshold for official business.
