(NoVA)- Amazon’s decision to drop its planned New York City hub isn’t expected to add any jobs in Virginia. Arlington County Board chairman Christian Dorsey said yesterday that nothing has changed for the Crystal City site. The New York announcement yesterday came after widespread pushback from Democratic lawmakers, residents, organizers and activists who were angry over the reported tax breaks the state was giving Amazon. Virginia has already signed off on legislation that promises the company up to 750-million-dollars in incentives.
