Map of proposal to divide California into six states.

Six Californias is a proposed initiative to split the U.S. state of California into six states. It is proposed as a California ballot measure for the 2016 state elections. Venture capitalist Tim Draper launched the measure in December 2013. If the measure passes, it does not legally split California immediately; consent would eventually need to be given by both the California State Legislature and the U.S. Congress to admit the new states to the union per Article IV, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution. Rather, the measure establishes several procedures within the state government and its 58 counties that prepare California for the proposed split, and then instructs the Governor of California to submit the state-splitting proposal to Congress.
