Name of EmployerThe west coast of the United States, also known as the Pacific

Coast, Pacific states, and the western seaboard, is the coastlinealong which the western
United States meets the North Pacific Ocean. The term typically refers to the contiguous
U.S. states of California, Oregon, and Washington, but sometimes includes Alaska and Hawaii,
especially by the United States Census Bureau as a U.S. geographic division.

With the exclusion of Alaska, the Democratic Party has dominated West Coast politics in
contemporary history, with the states consistently voting for Democrats in elections at various
levels. Four out of five West Coast states have voted for Democrats in presidential elections
since 1992, three of which have done so since 1988.
Definition
There are conflicting definitions of which states comprise the West Coast of the United States,
but the West Coast always includes California, Oregon, and Washington as part of that
definition. Under most circumstances, however, the term encompasses the three contiguous
states and Alaska, as they are all located in North America. For census purposes, Hawaii is part
of the West Coast, along with the other four states. Encyclopædia Britannica refers to the North American region as
part of the Pacific Coast, including Alaska and 
British Columbia. Although the encyclopedia acknowledges the inclusion of Hawaii in some capacity as part of the region, the editors wrote that "it
has little in common geologically with the mainland states."

Several dictionaries offer different definitions of the West Coast. Lexicorestricts the West
Coast's definition to "the western seaboard of the U.S. from Washington to
California." However, Macmillan Dictionary provides a less specific definition as "the western coast of the U.S., along the Pacific Ocean." As for
the Cambridge Dictionary , the West Coast is "the area of the Pacific coast in the U.S. that includes California."

The history of the West Coast begins with the arrival of the earliest known humans of the
Americas, Paleo-Indians, crossing the Bering Strait from Eurasia into North America over a
land bridge, Beringia, that existed between 45,000 BCE and 12,000 BCE (47,000–14,000 years
ago). Small isolated groups of hunter-gatherers migrated alongside herds of
large herbivores far into Alaska. Between 16,500 BCE and 13,500 BCE (18,500–15,500 years
ago), ice-free corridors developed along the Pacific coast and valleys of North America and
possibly by sea.
Alaska Natives, indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast, and California indigenous
peoples eventually descended from
