Texas Secession

The newly elected chair and vice-chair of the Texas Republican Party each signed a "Texas First" pledge put forward by a group advocating for secession. Its president says that's "invaluable."

The Texas Nationalist Movement asked the court to intervene after the state GOP ruled a petition to add the question to the primary ballot was invalid. “While we’re disappointed in the Supreme Court’s decision, this is not the end of the matter,” Texas Nationalist Movement president Daniel Miller told KERA.

The Texas Nationalist Movement says it plans to sue the state Republican Party after it rejected a petition to include a "TEXIT" question on the March primary ballot. The party says the signatures were turned in after the deadline, and many were invalid.
