What Immigration Means to Washington (Infographic)
Washington—the state with the second-highest food production in the nation—relies heavily on its growing immigrant population. While roughly one in seven Washington residents is foreign-born, over half of the state’s farmers, fishers, and foresters are immigrants. As workers, business owners, taxpayers, and neighbors, immigrants are an integral part of Washington’s diverse and thriving communities and make extensive contributions that benefit all.
