 A bill was passed in the New Mexico Senate to fund and file a lawsuit in the U.S. Supreme Court to recover the strip from Texas, but the bill did not become law.Today, land in the strip is included in Texas land surveys and the land and towns (the east part of Glenrio in Deaf Smith and Oldham Counties) for all purposes are taxed and governed by the State of Texas.As of the census of 2000, there were 2,185 people, 735 households, and 565 families residing in the county.
