The State of Jefferson is a proposed U.S. state that would encompass rural, conservative-leaning counties in southern Oregon and northern California. The movement to create the State of Jefferson dates back to the 1940s, when residents of the region felt that their needs and concerns were not being adequately represented by the state governments of Oregon and California.
The boundaries of the proposed State of Jefferson vary, but generally, it would include counties such as Siskiyou, Modoc, and Shasta in California, and Jackson, Josephine, and Klamath in Oregon. The movement advocates for greater local control and autonomy, as well as more representation in state government.
There have been various attempts throughout the years to formally establish the State of Jefferson, including petitions, meetings, and even armed standoffs. However, none of these efforts have been successful, and the region remains part of California and Oregon.
The State of Jefferson map typically includes a green background with gold borders and the image of a double-X symbol. This symbol represents the double-crossing by state governments that residents of the proposed state feel they have experienced.
