SJR 61 proposes a constitutional amendment granting the Texas Legislature the authority to review, approve, modify, or repeal rules adopted by state agencies within the executive department. The amendment allows the legislature to establish procedures for rulemaking, set conditions for rules to take effect, and delegate rule-review power to either house or legislative committees. The resolution also mandates that only elected legislators may participate in rule approval. If passed, the amendment will be submitted to voters on November 4, 2025.
