The resolution, known as the Annexation Resolution of 1845, required Texas to relinquish its claims to any territory outside of its current borders. Texas had to agree to divide its territory into multiple states if Congress deemed it necessary, and ultimately Texas agreed to boundary adjustments, giving up parts of its territory in exchange for statehood.
