On 25 January 2021, Texas State Representative [[Kyle Biedermann]] ([[Republican Party|R]]-Fredericksburg, Comal [[County]], Texas) introduced a bill – the ''Texas Independence Referendum Act'' – which would call for the statewide referendum the TNM advocates, to be held in November 2021. If the vote is in favor, then the bill provides that a committee, with members appointed by the [[Lieutenant Governor]] and the Speaker of the Texas State House, consider the "most efficient method" of achieving Texas independence.
