How will Texas defend itself? _______________________________________________________ Texas will defend itself just like every other nation on the globe - with a well-armed, well-trained, highly prepared military. Texas already has the Texas Military Forces, a three-branch military of which the Governor is the Commander-In-Chief. This will serve as the backbone for the development of a full military force to protect Texas during the transition period. The question then becomes how Texas will pay for it. The global average of military spending as a percentage of GDP is 4%. This would give Texas one of the most well-funded defense budgets in the world with which we can recruit, equip, train and deploy to meet any challenge to our nation. With the wealth of Texas no longer being siphoned off to Washington, we can afford it. Additionally, Texas can participate in regional defense pacts with the United States, other independent states and countries in the region further guaranteeing our security.
