Equal footing
Equal footing is a constitutional law doctrine upon which States admitted to the United States are given the same legal rights as the preexisting states. The doctrine also prevents Congress from conditioning admission to the union on matters outside of its powers.〔''Coyle v. Smith'', 221 U.S. 559 (1911)〕
==Doctrine of the Equality of States==
The Doctrine of the Equality of States, (also called Equal Footing), is based on Article IV, Section 3, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution, which says:
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.
Additionally, since the admission of Tennessee in 1796, Congress has included in each State's act of admission a clause providing that the State enters the Union "on an equal footing with the original States in all respects whatever."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Doctrine of the Equality of States )〕
