Persuade Congress to deny any attempt at state secessions. As congress is the only body in the US that can say yes or no

Created by J.P. on November 14, 2012

The Honourable Barack Obama:

Please have the Congress ignore any attempt at state secessions from the Union for the following reason:

Supreme Court case "Texas v. White", the supreme court ruled that,

"When, therefore, Texas became one of the United States, she entered into an indissoluble relation. All the obligations of perpetual union, and all the guaranties of republican government in the Union, attached at once to the State. The act which consummated her admission into the Union was something more than a compact; it was the incorporation of a new member into the political body. And it was final. The union between Texas and the other States was as complete, as perpetual, and as indissoluble as the union between the original States."

thus once a state becomes a state, it cant secede
