More volleying in the cold civil war.
Maybe it’s a good discussion topic but you’d have to get both state legislatures to sign off, plus the House and Senate in DC. Zero chance this would ever occur.
But if they did all line up and sign off....I could see five more states splitting off and doing the same act (western Virginia going to West Virginia would be one).
I’d prefer a conservative state of Jefferson, with two Senators and a number of Representatives.
Excellent idea! Idaho is WONDERFUL! Only they should reach deeper into California, maybe include the entire Central Valley, reach all the way to Bakersfield and Barstow.
Interesting but DOA. Just a couple thousand signatures does not make a groundswell of support. The tyranny of urban areas is entrenched and these efforts will not succeed. Besides, when is the last time state borders were substantially changed?
Set up the state of Jefferson with the conservative counties/cities in S. Oregon and Northern California.
That would give us two more conservative senators and retain the conservative congressmen in those two states.
Line needs to include Bend and Joseph.
California has in effect seceded from the Union. Perhaps parts of California can rejoin with portions of Greater Idaho
There hasn’t been anything like this since the 1860’s.
If open borders are such a great thing for the country, why not for states? Pay your taxes to whichever state you identify with.
Then tack it onto your pronoun list, i.e. “Bill Smith, He/Him, Idaho”.
Only a temporary fix. Boise is getting overrun by CA exiles and will soon be the same leftist 500 lb gorilla that runs the state as seen in Portland, Salt Lake and Denver.

Get out of that State...Get out of that State you’re in!
So there are some intelligent people in Oregon after all. Democrats are ruining this country little by little.
