Texas was annexed by the United States in 1845 and became the 28th state.

The annexation of Texas contributed to the coming of the Mexican-American War (1846-1848).

The annexation question became one of the most controversial issues in American politics in the late 1830s and early 1840s. The issue was not Texas but slavery. ... At this point, pro-slavery Southerners began to popularize a conspiracy theory that would eventually bring Texas into the Union as a slave state.
