Joint Resolution
Tyler opted for a joint resolution of Congress to annex Texas because a treaty would have required a two-thirds majority in the Senate, which was uncertain given the political opposition. The joint resolution only needed a simple majority in both the House and Senate, making it a more feasible route.
