Some people in the US objected to the annexation of Texas primarily due to concerns about the expansion of slavery, as Texas was a slave state, which could exacerbate sectional tensions between the North and South. Additionally, there were fears that annexation could lead to war with Mexico, as Texas had won its independence from Mexico but was not universally recognized, raising geopolitical concerns about American expansionism.
