Dozens of top companies in New York City are on the verge of departing for Florida, and the exodus may increase if the state legislature passes a proposed $7 billion tax hike, business leader say.

At least 20 finance and tech companies are already poised to leave the Big Apple for the Sunshine State, Kathyrn Wylde, CEO of the business-backed Partnership for New York City, told the New York Post.

Among those considering a move to Florida are JetBlue Airways, which has been headquartered in Queens since its founding two decades ago, and Goldman Sachs, which maintains its head office at an upscale address in Lower Manhattan.

This is an evergreen story; not clear on whether the companies are trying to leverage, or will actually do this.

Time will tell, but NYC is certainly remarkably resilient.
