Joining Together as the Citizens of California, Washington, Oregon, Hawaii and Alaska to Secede from the Union

With the results of the election edging a nationwide victory for a candidate that represents none of the values Citizens in California, Washington, Oregon, Hawaii and Alaska stand for, it is with our founding fathers in mind that we band together to secede from this Union. With our future and vitality at stake, we must as collective citizens reject such ideologies and direction. These five states share not only a regional identity, but some of the world's largest industries, and when measured collectively, one of the world's largest economies. Millions of people live in this region, and millions voted against this unstable presidency. It is in solidarity that we stand up and choose to form a more perfect union. One where our liberties, freedoms, and prosperity are fully secured.
