When Texas won its independence from Mexico in 1836, Texas President Sam Houston pressed the US to annex Texas. However, the US wasn't sure that Texas would be able to keep its independence, so they delayed. Later Texas President Lamar did not seek annexation. He believed Texas had its own "Manifest Destiny" to become a great nation that stretched from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. In 1844, under Texas President Anson Jones, Texas again pressed for annexation. However, it was an election year in the US and government officials weren't willing to commit to the issue at that time. Finally, in February 1846, the US Congress passed a joint resolution agreeing to annex Texas.
