No. Outside on an occasional move from Westchester County or midtown, I doubt he can attract any new corps to Ct, where they would have to hire, rather than just tell employees to reverse commute.

He was given a bad hand to play.

When they were bought by White Wolf Capital, it was reported they had about 100 employees down from 200 a few years earlier.

It's still 100 jobs though.

Beretta has increased headcount in Tn vs its Ct days.

Between the minimum wage hike and paid family leave... it will be just the start IMO.

I suspect that, also, and between this manufacturer and Forum Plastics who already announced they would leave when minimum wage legislation raising it so drastically passed, it is in excess of 250 manufacturing jobs gone, for an administration that barely took their coats off.

Sad to see. I wonder where they are considering relocating?

Off top of head, I would guess the south east or south central.

Sadly, makes sense. Gun laws more friendly outside of CT.

Southeast or south central, no doubt.

Beretta is thriving in middle Tn. Forum Plastics has been courted by Texas, and I would bet ends up there.

Anyone hear about UTC and Raytheon merging? Sounds cool, except for the fact that CNBC reported the HQ would be in Boston, not Farmington.
