Background
The modern Cascadian independence and political movement was founded in 2005 by Brandon Letsinger who began the CascadiaNow! independence project. It rapidly grew in popularity, growing chapters throughout the Pacific Northwest and being featured in a wide range of publications, such as Vice Magazine, USA Today, NPR, the CBC, the New York Times, CNN, Forbes, Portland Monthly, the Seattle Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Oregonian and many others. As it grew however, it also became more deeply aligned with bioregionalism, and shifted to become more educationally focused, finally launching as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in 2014. Many other groups have also followed over the years, including the Cascadia Independence Party in 2008, David McCloskey’s Cascadia Institute in 2009, the Cascadia Football Team in 2015, the Cascadia Underground in 2017. The Cascadia region itself (Oregon and Washington) makes up around 4% of the total GDP of the U.S., and is home to several notable companies such as Amazon, Starbucks, Microsoft, and Nike.
