Voters to decide fate of 17 amendments

Election is Nov. 4

AUSTIN — Seventeen amendments are on the Nov. 4 ballot ranging from financial support for technical training, ensuring voters are U.S. citizens and creating a dementia-research institute to no-bail for defendants accused of heinous crimes.

The proposals arose from the recently concluded 89th legislative session in which lawmakers boiled down 288 constitutional amendments to the propositions voters will consider at the ballot box.
