In the US, the legislative branch (Congress) typically votes with a two-thirds majority in both houses to send a proposed constitutional amendment to the states for ratification.
Constitutional amendments must be ratified by the votes of 3/4 of the State Legislatures. There is no requirement for a plebiscite, or vote of the people. Each State Legislature can, if it chooses, base its decision on a popular vote, but I'm not aware that any do.

In Texas, proposed constitutional amendments are ratified by the voters. After the Texas Legislature passes a joint resolution to propose an amendment, it must be placed on the ballot for the next election. The amendment is then approved or rejected based on the majority vote of the participating electorate.
