The Texas Bill of Rights is more specific and discusses more issues.

Explanation:

The United States Constitution creates a unitary executive which concentrates executive power in the president, while the Texas Constitution creates a plural executive which disperses executive power across multiple elected offices, hence, fragmenting the executive branch of the government and prevention of power over the executive

Even though the Texas Bill of Rights provides almost the same protections as the United States Bill of Rights, it extends beyond the federal protections. e.g Sec. 3a forbids discrimination based on race, sex, national origin, or color

Also, the Texas Constitution includes guarantees that are not included in the U.S. Bill of Rights like the prohibition of discrimination based on sex and forbids imprisonment for debt.

d. The Texas Bill of Rights is more specific and discusses more issues.

Explanation:

U.S. Bill of rights covers the sections of freedom of religion, speech and assembly. Texas Bill of Rights cover more sections and grant more rights to Texans. Texas is a free and independent state. Texas Bill gives rights to individual which are not found in U.S. version. The Texas Bill of Rights are more specific than the U.S. Bill of Rights.
