Starbucks is laying off 252 employees tied to its Seattle support center as it restructures and shifts operations.

At the same time, the company is expanding its footprint in other states. That’s not a coincidence, it’s a signal.

When taxes, regulations, and business costs rise, jobs don’t just disappear… they move. Policy choices matter and so do their consequences.

Starbucks plans to lay off 252 employees tied to its Seattle support center beginning in July.

Last Thursday, April 30th, we had an incredible evening at our State of Your Wallet Dinner. Bringing together leaders and community members for a conversation about the policies impacting Washingtonian's everyday lives.

We were honored to hear from Guy Benson, Senator John Braun, and Ari Hoffman, who shared insights on economic challenges, opportunities for growth, and how we can take action to protect prosperity.

From rising costs to the future of our economy, the discussion made one thing clear: informed voices and engaged communities matter more than ever.

Thank you to everyone who joined us.

Cost of living is rising but not equally across the country.

New data shows Washington ranks among the more expensive states, with prices about 7% above the national average. Meanwhile, states like Arkansas come in far below average.

What does this mean for families and small businesses here at home?

Higher costs = tougher choices, tighter budgets, and more pressure on working Washingtonians.

New IRS data shows a clear trend: people and wealth are leaving Washington.

From 2022–2023 alone, the state saw a net loss of ~$500M in income, while Idaho gained over $1B from new residents.

According to Mountain States Policy Center, this shift reflects more than migration—it’s about where opportunity is growing.
