Proposing a constitutional amendment establishing the Texas Redistricting Commission to redistrict Texas congressional districts and revising procedures for redistricting.
HJR 33 proposes a constitutional amendment to establish a Texas Redistricting Commission responsible for redrawing congressional district lines after each U.S. census. The commission, composed of the Lieutenant Governor, Speaker of the House, Attorney General, Comptroller, and Land Commissioner, would act if the legislature fails to pass redistricting plans within 90 days of the census. The commission must finalize district boundaries within 60 days of assembling, requiring signatures from at least three members, with the plan taking effect at the next statewide election. This bill directly affects how Texas congressional districts are redrawn, shifting authority from the legislature to the commission under specified timelines.
