A Texas State Representative has announced his intention to file a Resolution of Secession in 2021. If successfully passed by the Texas legislature, this would introduce a referendum before Texas voters to decide the state’s status: member of the United States or independent nation? Some view this bid as unnecessary and a longshot, but with the radical left bent on punishing conservatives, Texas may simply be saying what others are thinking. Louisiana is also considering moving to a closed primary system to ensure voters are able to support the candidates they feel best represent their values. |
