Information About

Freedom County, Washington




Claiming frustration at what they believed to be a corrupt Snohomish County Government , on April 23, 1995, the Freedom County comissioners submitted to the Washington Secretary Of State a Petition with 12,679 Signature s calling for the secession of the northern half of Snohomish County, excluding Marysville and the Tulalip Indian Reservation . On the state constitutional basis that only the Legislature can create a new County , and that it cannot be compelled to do so by petition, the government refused to act, and Freedom County remains unrecognized.
