Manifest Destiny.
Yes, people who believed in Manifest Destiny supported the acquisition of New Mexico, Texas, and California.

Texas played a crucial role in the concept of Manifest Destiny, as its annexation in 1845 exemplified the belief that the United States was destined to expand across the continent. The Texas Revolution against Mexico in 1836 and subsequent statehood fueled nationalistic sentiments and the idea that American settlers were meant to spread democracy and civilization. The resulting conflict with Mexico, particularly the Mexican-American War, further solidified U.S. territorial expansion and the fulfillment of Manifest Destiny. Texas's incorporation into the Union marked a significant step in the U.S.'s westward expansion ambitions.
