TEXAS INDEPENDENCE DAY will be celebrated on Wednesday, March 2. In 1836 we officially adopted the Texas Declaration of Independence, severing ties with Mexico, the document being signed by 59 settlers. Thus, we became the Republic of Texas, a sovereign nation. March 2 is an official holiday in Texas.
