States have always been able to do these things.
Perhaps there are a few other administrative tasks they should collaborate on as well...

They can hire all of the experts fleeing the RFK clownshow
i love that the health guy looks like the most illnesses possible in one person
Why is it the westernmost states that are the most progressive?
"Progressive" being relative
furthest away from the white house
Because they aren't
Very high concentrations of educated citizens among the populace, a functional tax system that actually reinvests into its people compared to many other states in the union (especially below the Mason-Dixon line), and key cities center to high-tech development and critical US industries, military or otherwise (Seattle, LA, San Jose, San Francisco).
Additionally, because these states were some of the last to be incorporated into the United States, they largely were able to develop in less rigid ways in the 20th and 21st centuries compared to other states in the union (Cheaper land also allowed developing industries like computing to invest heavily in the region).
Though not a perfect summation, here's a video from Vox about why Silicon Valley is located in California: https://youtu.be/6xvrKW2H_hA
I can try to explain any other questions about our politics and social norms as a Californian (though I'm less familiar with Oregon and Washington State, sadly).

I hope they secede from the Union
Russia would love that.
Look mate, the USA is a fascist country. Might as well secede, while they still can.
Whatever you say, pal. -eyeroll-
