Southern states only.
The Emancipation Proclamation applied to states in rebellion (Confederate states/areas) as of Jan 1, 1863. It did not apply to Northern states or the Union border slave states (Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri — and later the new state West Virginia) or to Confederate areas already under Union control.
