New York Executives Decry Regulatory Burdens

Businesses in New York are worried about doing business in the state.

They're complaining about complicated rules and rising costs.

A recent survey showed most business leaders don't feel like New York's lawmakers support them.

Many executives find it difficult to get permits and licenses.

They also have trouble finding and keeping workers because of the high cost of living.

One politician running for mayor wants to raise taxes on businesses and the wealthy to pay for things like free childcare.

However, other people and politicians believe those changes will drive companies and people away from New York.
