Proposing a constitutional amendment establishing a parent's right to direct the education of the parent's child.
HJR 92 proposes adding a new section to the Texas Constitution that would establish a parent's right to direct their child's education in any manner they choose, using funds available to them. This amendment would directly affect all Texas parents and students by granting parents legal authority over educational decisions, including curriculum and teaching methods. The bill includes a presumption that parents act in their child's best interest and requires voter approval via a November 2025 ballot measure. If approved, it would become part of the Texas Constitution, changing how education decisions are structured for minors.
