I guess since they kept getting their asses kicked trying to put one on the Mexico border, they thought this might work. That being said, might this actually also be blatantly illegal, as it impedes free movement between states? The constitution explicitly provides for interstate travel without government abridgement.

Didn't Texas say last year that they wanted to try being independent from the USA? I'm not from the US (anymore) so I'm not sure but I kind of remember that being said.

Maybe Texas and Puerto Rico can swap status. Puerto Rico can become a state in exchange for Texas freeing up the slot, then we don't even need to change any songs or anything.
