Bill > HJR62

This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment for Texas that would require the state to observe daylight saving time (DST) continuously throughout the entire year, applying to all parts of the state regardless of time zone. The amendment specifies that if a court determines the state is not federally authorized to implement year-round DST, the provision will become fully effective once the United States Congress passes legislation allowing such a change. The proposed amendment will be submitted to Texas voters for approval at an election on November 4, 2025, with the ballot presenting the specific proposition: "The constitutional amendment requiring this state to observe daylight saving time year-round." If approved, this would mean Texas would no longer switch between standard time and daylight saving time twice a year, instead maintaining a consistent time setting throughout the calendar year.
