Article IV, Section 3, Clause 1, states:
New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or Parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress
This process has been used successfully to create five states: Vermont (from New York, in 1791); Kentucky (from Virginia, in 1792); Tennessee (from North Carolina, in 1796); Maine (from Massachusetts, in 1820); and West Virginia (from Virginia, in 1863).

Steps in the Process:

First Step is to have The County Commissioners or the people of every southern Oregon County involved in the process to enact a Declaration of Formation for the State of Jefferson.
 
  • Then the aggregation of these Declarations must be sent to the Oregon Legislature for action
     
  • If it receives a positive vote from the OR legislature then the issue moves on to the US Congress
     
  • If it receives a negative vote from the legislature then the issue moves to the courts based on a lack of representation for rural Oregon.  
     
  • If the US Congress passes the issue then Jefferson becomes a state. 
     
  • Otherwise, the issue should head to the courts based on a lack of representation where our efforts will focus on overturning and a host of other court decisions that eroded the federalist system of representation, wherein the majority tyrannizes the minority.                                                                                                         
 
  • Provided our state formation has been successful, a constitution for the State of Jefferson will be drafted then Committees of Reconciliation will be formed to separate the assets from Oregon to be incorporated into the State of Jefferson
