I've not heard about GPS systems being selectively activated in specific states. If you are able to acquire at least 3 GPS satellite signals, you can get a lock on your coordinates.

You can get an actual GPS module for around $50+ online 😀 Check this website:

You can use a microcontroller (like a PIC) to interface with the GPS module, and let the uC format the information into something more understandable.

For tracking, its better to send the information to an internet connected device like a computer (or phone) and match it to map databases.
