Texas was a slave state, and its admission would tip the balance of power in Congress in favor of pro-slavery interests. Additionally, there were fears that annexing Texas could lead to further territorial expansion and conflicts with Mexico. This opposition was part of the broader sectional tensions that eventually contributed to the Civil War.

He feared that admitting Texas would exacerbate sectional tensions and potentially lead to conflict. Additionally, Adams was wary of the possibility of war with Mexico, which still claimed Texas as its territory. His opposition was rooted in a broader vision of national unity and moral principles against the spread of slavery.
