If Northern California breaks off into the Conservative right to work state of Jefferson, then it's ports at Eureka would probably boom.
Companies would start to choose Eureka to avoid Portland & Seattle where the long shore unions are in control.

You really think ‘Jefferson’ will not have ILWU ports? These ports will be more expensive by the sheer increased regulations. It’s not going to be South Korea!
BTW, I was a longshoreman (ILWB, #37) for five years.
