Cascadia Act

The Cascadia Act refers to a proposed piece of legislation aimed at promoting the establishment of a new state or region in the Pacific Northwest of the United States and Canada, specifically encompassing areas like Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia. Advocates argue that it would allow for better governance, economic collaboration, and environmental management tailored to the unique needs of the region. The concept of Cascadia emphasizes regional identity, sustainability, and cooperation among neighboring jurisdictions, reflecting shared cultural, ecological, and economic interests. While it has gained attention, it is not yet a formalized law or widely supported initiative.
