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.

Constitution: Article IV, Section 3.

So? They're not trying to create a new state.

Yes, there is a procedure. The states and the US Congress have to approve it. They are working on it.

That doesn't apply. What does it say about counties moving to a different already existing state?
