The admission of new states to the United States is governed by the Constitution, specifically Article IV, Section 3. This provision allows Congress to admit new states but does not permit the creation of new states from existing states without the consent of the state legislatures involved. Additionally, any admission must adhere to the principles of federalism and respect the rights of current states. Congress has the authority to set specific conditions or requirements for admission, which can vary depending on the circumstances.

It also included stronger fugitive slave laws to appease the slave states.
New states are admitted to the union through a process outlined in the U.S. Constitution. This process involves Congress passing a law to admit the new state, the President signing the law, and the new state adopting a constitution and meeting certain requirements set by Congress.
