When was a territory eligible for statehood?
Article IV, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution empowers the U.S. Congress to grant statehood. Congress is given the authority to determine the conditions for statehood except that new states cannot be created by merging or splitting existing states without the approval of both the U.S. Congress and the states' legislatures. Generally, a territory holds an election to determine the people's desire for statehood. If a majority desire statehood, then the territory proposes an enabling act to the US Congress for calling a constitutional convention. Congress then votes on the enabling act which lays out the the requirements that must be met as a prerequisite to statehood. The enabling act usually requires the prospective state to adopt a form of government and constitution that are in compliance with the U.S. Constitution. Once a constitutional convention has been held, and the requirements of the enabling act fulfilled, the territory then presents a resolution to the US Congress calling for statehood. Once both the House and Senate pass the resolution, it is sent to the US President for his signature. Once the President signs the joint resolution the territory is acknowledged as a U.S. state.
