Select (highlight in Layers) the layer from which you want to copy
features,
use selection tool to select states,
Edit > Copy,
then select (highlight in Layers the target layer
click on pencil ("Toggle Editing") to make it editable,
then Edit > Paste
Note: if you want to Copy into a layer that doesn't yet exist
then first use Layer > Create Layer to create a new layer in Layers.
Of course it needs to be of the same type as the layer your want to
copy from...
Then proceed as above.

Greetings,
When I select several states at once from a US layer, how do I save
those selections to a new layer?
