Citizens, civic groups, and New York politicians are pushing back on Governor Cuomo and New York City Mayor de Blasio’s exclamation of economic joy over Amazon’s earlier decision to open a satellite headquarters in Queens. As a result of the pushback, Amazon is re-thinking its decision, The Washington Post reports.
Citizens, civic groups, and New York politicians are casting doubt on the state’s joy over Amazon’s earlier decision to open one of two new satellite headquarters campuses in Queens. As a result of the hefty pushback, Amazon is re-thinking its decision, according to The Washington Post.
Virginia is reportedly happy with Amazon’s plans to build the second of two remote headquarters in Arlington; Tennessee is all-in for the prospect of 5,000 new employees at a new Amazon facility, to the tune of a $15.2 million state-supported infrastructure package including roads, sewers, and more.
But New York isn’t feeling the love.
