I'm sure they'll pick a different high tax blue state that offers them amazing subsidies that are already ingrained in Texas tax policy.

They won't be looking for another location. Will be focusing the expansion on DC, with a much smaller campus planned for Nashville.

Somehow, I'd wager Stephen Moret has lined up a deal for Amazon to locate a good bit more, if not all, of those 25,000 future jobs from NY to VA.
