No, Texas is not the only state that has retained its right to secession. While Texas has a unique history regarding its admission to the United States and has sometimes been cited in discussions about secession, no state has a legally recognized right to secede. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Texas v. White (1869) that states cannot unilaterally secede from the Union. Other states may have historical claims or discussions around secession, but these have no legal standing.
Governor Sam Houston of Texas strongly opposed secession, as evidenced by his refusal to pledge allegiance to the Confederacy and his public speeches denouncing the act. In early 1861, he declared that Texas should remain in the Union, emphasizing the importance of unity and warning against the dangers of disunion. His opposition culminated in his removal from office when he refused to take the oath of allegiance to the Confederate States, highlighting his steadfast commitment to the Union.
