In 1925 the Washington Cattlemen's Association developed a statewide, grassroots organization that devoted itself to promoting agriculture and the cattle industry and today, 78 years later, that remains the hallmark of our association. We have dedicated ourselves to preserving, protecting, and promoting the beef industry through producer and consumer education, legislative participation, regulatory scrutiny, and legal intervention.

In terms of preserving, protecting, and promoting the cattle industry of Washington, WCA is leading the charge. WCA is, and continually strives to be, the respected voice of Washington’s cattle industry. WCA works daily on the issues that are important to Washington cattle producers at both a state and national level.
