HB 4309 is a simple but important bill that promotes fairness in Texas elections. It clarifies that candidates nominated by convention should submit filing fees or petitions to their party chair, just as candidates in primaries do. This change brings much-needed consistency and equity to the ballot access process.

Without action from the House Calendars Committee, HB 4309 may stall. That would leave intact an outdated system that treats candidates differently based on how their party nominates them.

Take Action:

Ask the House Calendars Committee to schedule HB 4309 for a vote. This bill ensures all candidates — regardless of party — are treated fairly under Texas election law.
