A lot of the proposed constitutional amendments on this year's ballot ask voters what to do with big piles of state money. But none deals with more money than Proposition 7, which would take $10 billion and use most of it to subsidize building more power plants in Texas.
Of course, you wouldn’t know that from reading the ballot language.
On the ballot, Proposition 7 asks voters whether they want to create a "Texas energy fund … to support the construction, maintenance, modernization, and operation of electric generating facilities."
