Proposing a constitutional amendment specifying the authority of the attorney general to prosecute a criminal offense prescribed by the election laws of this state.

HJR 6 proposes a constitutional amendment clarifying that the Texas Attorney General has the authority to prosecute criminal offenses under state election laws, alongside county or district attorneys. This would allow the Attorney General's office to directly handle election-related criminal cases in addition to local prosecutors. The bill does not create new election crimes but specifies that the Attorney General shares jurisdiction with local officials for existing election law violations. If approved by voters in May 2026, this change would modify Article IV, Section 22 of the Texas Constitution.
