At Washington Policy Center (WPC) our mission is to promote solutions and fact-based dialogue that improve the lives of the people of our state. Working with lawmakers, stakeholders and citizens, we offer high-quality research that promotes free markets and personal empowerment.
Never in our state's history has this been more important. Those of us who call the Evergreen State home are proud of its vibrant history of innovation and disruption - from manufacturing to technology, consumer goods and even music. Yet, our state now faces severe challenges in student achievement, environmental stewardship and entrepreneurship.

WPC is providing state performance metrics in key areas to jump-start recognition of where current policy isn't working and the search for real solutions. Policymakers and the public need to know whether a state policy is a success or failure so that resources are allocated toward solutions rather than political intentions.Our vision for this research is to promote objective standards to policy success or failure. We can't just increase funding for what isn't working and expect to obtain better results. WPC seeks to help build a thriving Washington state where free-market policies create growth, innovation and opportunity for everyone.
Each iteration of WPC's Report Card for Washington's Future is organized by issue and features analysis from each of our research directors who are some of the best minds in the state on these issues. In addition to the condensed digital report and "data dashboard" linked below, we have the indepth Policy Briefs (white papers) which include the following issues:
We are also adding video and podcast complimentary materials on these topics so that you can learn and share in the format that best suits your needs. As new data become available, you can expect updates to our report card materials, so be sure to check in from time to time.
