Could they pass one Omnibus Secession Bill? Even if they had a legislative majority and no fear of a Presidential veto, it would be a game of diminishing returns if the states allowed to secede couldn’t vote on the secession of subsequent southern states.

I hadn't really thought out the mechanics of it, but now that you mention it a single piece of legislation authorizing all 7 state to leave would have had the best chance for success.
