Republican State Rep. Bryan Slaton said he was "proud" to introduce the bill, the Texas Independence Referendum Act, or H.B. 3596, because it gives the people of Texas a way to make their voices heard.

"The Texas Constitution is clear that all political power resides in the people," Slaton tweeted.

"After decades of continuous abuse of our rights and liberties by the federal government, it is time to let the people of Texas make their voices heard. On this 187th anniversary of the fall of the Alamo I’m proud to file this bill to let the people of Texas vote on the future of our state."

A state lawmaker also attempted to add a referendum on secession in 2021. If it passes, the legislature will establish a commission to investigate the feasibility of Texas leaving the United States and provide recommendations to both chambers.

A movement called the Texas Nationalist Movement, or TEXIT, has long pushed for legislation to make the state its own sovereign nation. The organization claimed Texas should be "politically self-governing, culturally distinct, and economically independent," according to its website.

“The people of Texas will look back on this day as a historic first step in taking back our autonomy and our right to self-determination from the federal government," Texas Nationalist Movement President Daniel Miller said in a statement shared with the Washington Examiner.

"Sixty-six percent of likely voters in Texas support this referendum coming up for a vote, and we thank Rep. Slaton for taking heed and giving them the opportunity to make their voice heard at the ballot box. We look forward to working with legislators to get this bill passed and the referendum on the ballot.”

The organization touts 440,000 members and is the third-largest political organization in the state. The only two that are bigger are the Texas Republican Party and the Texas Democratic Party, according to a press release.

Discussions around secession, which is not covered in the Constitution, have been happening off and on in Texas since it joined the United States in 1846.

However, there was a period between 1836, when it seceded from Mexico, and 1846 when it joined the U.S. that it was its own independent state — the Republic of Texas.

HB 3596, known as the "Texas Independence Referendum Act," or TEXIT, was filed by state Rep. Bryan Slaton, R-Royse City, on Monday. If passed, Texans would be able to vote in the next general election on the possibility of Texas becoming an independent state. Then if there is a majority vote by the people, a committee will plan the next steps in the state seceding from the Union.

It's a recurring theme in Texas to flirt with the idea of state independence, since it became its own country when it separated from Mexico in 1836 and didn't join the U.S. until 1845. The bill was filed on the 187th anniversary of the fall of the Alamo.

"The Texas Constitution is clear that all political power resides in the people," Slaton said in a press release. "After decades of continuous abuse of our rights and liberties by the federal government, it is time to let the people of Texas make their voices heard."

TEXIT wouldn't really work
Last legislative session, former state Rep. Kyle Biedermann filed a similar bill in which Texans could vote on a possible state secession, but ultimately the bill died before receiving a hearing. Even more recently, Slaton filed a resolution seeking an election to allow voters to decide on Texas' independence in June 2022.

TEXIT is a popular thought, but even if the referendum made it to the ballot and it received a majority vote, state independence is still not feasible. An 1869 case, Texas v. White, decided individual states could not secede from the U.S., even if voted on by the people in that state.

Texas would only be weakened and destroyed by being its own independent thing.

But as it is now, Texas is a great influence on other states in several topics. Especially for strengthening people's right to defend themselves and working to limit or even remove the NFA. Texas is the only state where anybody can legally buy a sound supressor in a store without any tax stamp, hassle, or years of paperwork by ATF.

Because the only justification for how supressors could be legally banned federally is because they are made in one state, then transported and sold in a different state. So federally any item could be banned with no justifiable reason as long as it travels between states. So Texas makes them inside of Texas and sells them to Texas residents with no federal involvement.

And other things like 2nd Amendment Sanctuary States and permitless Constitutional Carry, these are now spreading to many states and were heavily influenced and helped by the work of Texas lawyers and Texas state government.

What is very interesting that maybe you can find a good article about, is the Greater Idaho project.

Oregon is all rural rebublican type people. Mountains, farm lands, and even desert on the east side. Very large percentage of people are farmers, and similar types of natural physical jobs. The type of people who almost always are Republican.

But the thing that fucks it up is Portland is in Oregon. One of the most discusting shithole cities in the whole country. Similar to San Francisco. Where it is all taken over and controlled by insane communist jews, drug addicts, and criminals. Legalizing all types of crimes, and refusing to prosecute all types of crimes so that all crime is allowed. Shoplifting is allowed if it is less than $1,000 at a time. So all businesses are dying from all the people stealing from them multiple times every day. And with drug use similarly legalized, there is an enormously high number of drug addicted people, then they steal to get money for the drugs. The communist "antifa" jews have absolutely destroyed everything there.

But the people in Portland who voted for all of those degenerate policies are a very large number of people. So when they vote on things that effect the whole state, this one city has an enormous effect on the policies and laws of the entire state.


So there is a plan for the majority of the counties in Oregon to succeed from Oregon, and join and become part of Idaho. Idaho is similar kind of land and similar people. Oregon would just be about one third of the size it used to be and only be the areas by the ocean. There are also some counties in northeastern California that are wanting to join the Greater Idaho for the same reasons.


This is getting a lot of support and keeps progressing to higher steps towards being completed. And it looks like it might end up happening.

But I will be a little disappointed that Idaho would no longer look like a gnome sitting down.

Greetings OAL,
I just watched a short vid on the effects of Oregon decriminalizing drugs 2 years ago. And then I saw your reply.
I've personally seen the same happening in Austin, TX, Florida, NYC, and Chicago to some extent. Mexico city and its major tourist/liberal areas are following suit.
What state/ city do you believe is the best (in contrast to Portland) in the USA?
West Virginia, perhaps?

HS.

I can't say. This is one of the biggest countries in the world, with all different types of environments. It depends what kind of place is right for you which would be different for someone else.

Stay as far away as possible from any city controlled by democrat leadership. All of them are the same anti-human anti-life communist shitholes. Where rapists and murderers are let out of jail with no bond, their cases are not prosecuted. But you would be prosecuted for defending yourself.

I don't know much about West Virginia. But I know Tim Pool and his group have been very happy since moving there.

How is Florida as a state in US? It usually gets a very bad rap in us media.

How is Florida as a state in US? It usually gets a very bad rap in us media.

All of the bad propaganda about Florida is lies and jokes. They have different rules about privacy for criminals, so news companies are able to directly contact police departments and receive stories from them, when most other states do not allow this. So this is why there is such a large number of stories from there.

Florida has a large increasing amount of crimes from illegal immigrants. But all states are having this problem now, especially all border states.

Florida also experiences very bad hurricanes every couple years. So there is a risk that a hurricane can destroy the house, or even a whole town. The weather is horrible all of the time, it is so hot and so humid it's like boiling to death. You would be always sweating from the humidity. It rains very hard almost every day, but usually only for a very short amount of time. But you might like this kind of climate. I don't mind rain, but I couldn't be somewhere that hot.

And Florida also has problems with invasive species. 20 foot long burmese pythons, and other crazy things. But these are mostly in the Everglades, and is not the same everywhere.


Florida has a strong state government with good politicians. They have been creating policies to give a good quality of life to their citizens. They have been one of the best states in the past few years for trying to protect peoples rights and give people a good life.

Is this true? Someone posted -

As people agree, "Freedom and peace, motherfucker!" (memes) because other areas have oil that USA wants to steal. "GI Joe" (Action Man in America) apparently wants to protect "US interests overseas". As if Children care about that. Oh! It's indoctrination... It's hardly a union if they are either forced to re-join; rather, kidnapped and kept hostage/prisoner, or disallowed from exiting.
