Is it possible for any state or states to secede from the union ? What would have to happen for states to do this ?
I think a lot of us who live in red states would like see our state do this tomorrow. I don’t think Federal Government could stop it unless military was involved ? MD

I think it is possible but you need to be able to spell it right.

I believe, and Lawyer James can correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that for a State to secede from the Union, they have to Amend the Constitution , which requires approval of the amendment by either: 1) two-thirds of each branch of Congress or 2) two-thirds of states at a specially-formed constitutional convention, with the amendment then being ratified by three-quarters of the states.

Success!

I think the seeds that were seeded 100-150 years ago, have sprouted, grown and now are bearing fruit.

Crap ton of weeds in the odd fruits too.


Blessings,

A state like my old state of North Dakota I think would have no problem. ND has so many natural resources , food , etc. what they don’t have they could trade for With blue states or other countries. Would not take much to defend ND , every child after high school serves in Military for 1 or years just like Israel. I really don’t see a down side for at least a few states doing this. Let California and NewYork , ILL solve their own problems instead of putting the burden on the rest of us. MD

How about is it possible to kick a state out of the Union?

Logic says the same body that ratified, ie state legislature, the Constitution retains the right to deratify. But history has shown that the full wrath of the federal entity will fall down upon those who may try.

Anything is possible, but there aren't enough people in any State(s) that have the balls to try it AGAIN, let alone succeed . . . grin

California has the population resources and geography to be its own country.
Not sure what other states meet the criteria.

First thing you might need is a monetary system and banking network. That is not so simple. You will then need tax laws to support a military, a central government, schools, medicare, etc.

IMF would never allow a small landlocked dry "country" like SD to be successful. You'd by the Kyrgyzstan of North America.

If the secession was to succeed you could not keep all of the emigrants out. I would move just to be "free".
