Proposing a constitutional amendment to prohibit the legislature, when apportioning a congressional district of which a majority of residents are included in a demographic group that is a minority in this state, from reducing the proportion of that group in the district if the legislature has apportioned the district at least once since the publication of the most recent United States decennial census.

This constitutional amendment proposal (SJR 2) would prohibit Texas legislators from reducing the proportion of a demographic group that is a minority in the state within a congressional district where that group forms a majority of residents. It applies only to districts that have been apportioned at least once since the last U.S. census. The amendment specifically prevents the legislature from lowering that group's representation in such districts but does not restrict increasing it. This would require voter approval before becoming part of the Texas Constitution.
