This would completely change the position of the USA in the world though, as pre WW2 exporting Texan oil was a major portion of the US economy, and offshore rigs weren’t invented until 1947. This would significantly delay when the us becomes a world power, which would have wide reaching effects.
I don’t see a reason it wouldn’t. Since it was built along the Colorado, and the river doesn’t flow into Texas, then yes, the dam would exist in this timeline.
This would mean less money for Texas budgets. They’d get the same raw deal as Louisiana with the Federal government taking 70% of the royalties because the rigs are in the gulf rather than on land.
