The Miss Washington USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state of Washington in the Miss USA pageant.
Washington has been moderately successful in terms of number of semi-finalists and placements, and has had one Miss USA. Dorothy Anstett won the crown in 1968 and went on to place 4th runner-up at Miss Universe.
No Miss Washington USA has competed at Miss Teen USA, although one has competed at Miss America.
