Proposition 12 – SJR 27 – Explained in ASL
“The constitutional amendment regarding the membership of the State Commission on Judicial Conduct, the membership of the tribunal to review the commission’s recommendations, and the authority of the commission, the tribunal, and the Texas Supreme Court to more effectively sanction judges and justices for judicial misconduct.”
Visual Description: A man is seated at a wooden table against a plain off-white background. He has light brown skin, a bald head, and a neatly trimmed beard. He is wearing clear-framed glasses, a black short-sleeve shirt, and a black smartwatch on his left wrist.
Context: Changes how the State Commission on Judicial Conduct works. This is the group that oversees judges in Texas. It changes who can serve on the commission, how cases are reviewed, and gives the commission stronger powers to discipline judges publicly when needed. Votes yes means the commission is updated and given more authority to discipline judges. Votes no means the commission continues to operate the same as now.
