Sam Houston opposed Texas secession from the Union and was not a supporter of Texas being a Confederate state during the lead-up to the American Civil War. In February 1861, he publicly declared his opposition to secession, emphasizing his belief in preserving the Union. This stance ultimately led to his removal as governor of Texas in March 1861, as he refused to take an oath of allegiance to the Confederacy. Houston's commitment to the Union was a significant aspect of his political legacy.
