The US Constitution in Article 4, Section 1, Clause 1 states that new states may be admitted into the Union. It prohibits states being formed withing the jurisdictions of other states. It also prohibits new states to be formed by the juncture of two or more state or parts of states unless the legislatures of the states concerned and the Congress consent.
