The Texas House State Affairs Committee is set to hear testimony on three bills this Wednesday that could fundamentally reshape the relationship between Texas and the Federal Government. Make no mistake – this hearing represents a critical juncture for every Texan who values liberty and self-governance.
For decades, we’ve watched as Washington has trampled our sovereignty, micromanaged our daily lives, and siphoned away our hard-earned dollars to fund their ever-expanding bureaucracy. But now, thanks to the tireless efforts of patriotic legislators in Austin, we have a real opportunity to push back and take meaningful steps toward Texas independence.
HB 796, the Texas Sovereignty Act, lays out a straightforward mechanism for Texas to determine the constitutionality of federal actions and declare them null and void within our borders. This legislation creates the exact framework we need to begin operating as a truly sovereign entity. By establishing our own process to evaluate and reject unconstitutional federal overreach, we’re asserting the kind of self-determination that forms the backbone of any independent nation. This isn’t just pushing back – it’s establishing the legal precedent for Texas to govern itself.
HB 1056 establishes gold and silver specie as currency in Texas. Make no mistake – monetary independence is absolute key to our overall independence. While the Federal Reserve continues to print money at breakneck speed, devaluing every dollar you earn, this bill provides the foundation for a Texas free from federal monetary control. No independent nation can truly call itself sovereign without control of its own currency. This legislation puts us squarely on that path, creating the financial infrastructure we’ll need when we finally reassert our status as an independent republic.
HB 1544 focuses on recovering the massive costs Texas has incurred securing our border while the Federal Government turns a blind eye. Border security is national security – period. An independent Texas must control its own borders, and this bill demonstrates our capacity to do just that. By forcing the federal government to acknowledge our expenditures, we’re setting the stage for complete Texas control over our international boundaries – a non-negotiable requirement for any self-governing nation.
The hearing will be held in the John H. Reagan Building, northwest of the Capitol near 15th Street on Wednesday, March 26th. Every Texan who can attend should be there to show their support. This isn’t just another committee hearing – it’s a direct advancement of our mission toward independence.
If you can’t make it in person, you can still make your voice heard by submitting comments via the Texas Legislature’s online form at https://comments.house.texas.gov/home?c=c450. The window for submitting comments closes when the hearing adjourns, so don’t delay.
These bills aren’t about reform within the current system; they’re about building the framework for complete Texas independence. Each piece of legislation addresses a core function required of any independent nation: legal sovereignty, monetary independence, and border security.
The path forward is becoming increasingly evident. Each of these bills represents another brick in the foundation of an independent Texas. With a strong showing of public support, we can propel these critical pieces of legislation forward and take three more steps toward the day when Texas stands once again as a free, independent nation.
