257. State Self-Defense
We urge the Texas Legislature to invoke Article 1, Section 10, Clause 3 of the US Constitution, also known as the "state self-defense clause," which asserts that under an active invasion (as defined or declared by the Governor of the State or Texas Legislature), the sovereign state of Texas has the authority and duty to defend Texas citizens against "imminent Danger," not admitting delay, by any and all appropriate measures the sovereign state defines as necessary to defend from such assaults. We must immediately equip the Texas Military with the necessary tools and authority to serve and protect Texas State territories and citizens.
