A.J. LouderbackTexas State Representative, District 30
This proposed change to the Texas Constitution would lower the number of legislators required to conduct business in the state senate and house. Currently, two-thirds of members must be present. The amendment would lower this to a simple majority. Voters would decide on this change in May 2026. When we show up together, our community becomes more connected, more resilient, and more powerful.
