No, actually it isn't, per the Supreme Court: Texas vs White
Where's the constitutional amendment making it illegal?
No amendment required. It's there in the constitution already. Look at the words "more perfect union" in the preamble.
Actually that does not apply to the powers that the federal government has. That section is the enumerated powers section and none of those say it can forbid a state from leaving nor is there any prohibition placed on states in the federal constitution saying they can't leave.
Listen, I'm not saying that states should leave but it is a choice of each state whether it wants to stay or not. I would vote staying since there are a lot of advantages being a part of the federation of states that bond together for the common defense and general welfare.
