Texas Secession Petition Racks Up More Than 80,000 Signatures, Qualifies For White House Response
The 25k signatures is for the WH to respond to the petition, not to actually secede. Basically the WH will respond to the petition and tell the signatories the legal process to secede. Since you need an overwhelming majority of the particular states residents and state government approval, it will NEVER happen.
