Can you quote the relevant article? I'm not up on the Texas Constitution.

No, but I'd expect the determination of whether it's within the authority of the Texas legislature to do it, or whether it requires a vote of the general population would be laid out there.

I would think that the authority would be it the federal Constitution and not the state one. Admission to the Union and changes in status once you are in are controlled by that.
