Reyistas issued their Plan de Bernardo Reyes at La Soledad Ranch near the frontier in Tamaulipas.
The plan was a "reform" of the Maderista Plan de San Luis but was principally a repudiation of Madero.
Reyes had first figured militarily in the war against the French. After that he'd had a combined military and political career, and was considered a potential successor to Díaz as late as 1909, when he went into exile. He returned to Mexico in 1910.
General Romulo Cuellar, former commander of federal forces in Tamaulipas during the regime of Porfirio Díaz, crossed into Texas at Brownsville, announcing that, like General Reyes who was anticipating invading from the US, he would be temporarily living in the United States. Cuellar was part of the Reyes effort.
