Once Congress approves the constitution and the territory meets certain criteria, it can be admitted as a state into the Union.

What is the law that allows the US to grant statehood?

An "act of admission" by Congress is required to grant statehood. The original acts that allowed new states were under the Articles of Confederation. The "Ordinance of 1784" and the "Northwest Ordinance" (1787) established the principle of forming new states rather than the expansion of existing ones. The Constitution adopted the principle that states could neither split nor merge (although this was subsequently allowed with West Virginia). The Enabling Act of 1802 allowed Ohio to form a state, and set the pattern for future statehood for parts of US territories.
