What Is a TAC State?

TAC stands for Traditional Autonomy Compact.

A TAC state is one of nine states that have voluntarily joined a constitutionally authorized agreement allowing them to operate with cultural, economic, and legal autonomy — while still remaining part of the United States.


Official Definition:

“A TAC State is a U.S. state operating under the Traditional Autonomy Compact — a federal agreement that grants regional control over cultural, religious, educational, and economic policy, while maintaining U.S. citizenship, federal emergency access, and national defense protection.”


The 9 TAC States:

  • Texas

  • Florida

  • Louisiana

  • Oklahoma

  • Arkansas

  • Mississippi

  • Tennessee

  • Kentucky

  • Alabama


Key Features of TAC States:

  • Full authority over faith-based laws and education

  • Power to opt out of federal programs like UBI, reparations, and AI redistribution

  • May operate a regional currency (TAC Note) and establish their own economic systems

  • Protected by a non-aggression clause — no war, no secession, just choice

  • Eligible to rejoin full federal programs at any time by state referendum
