Sam Houston resigned from the governorship of Texas in 1861 due to his opposition to secession from the Union. As a staunch supporter of the Union, he refused to pledge allegiance to the Confederacy after Texas seceded during the Civil War. His strong beliefs and refusal to compromise ultimately led to his resignation on March 16, 1861, as he could not support a government he did not believe in.
