Reno & Las Vegas Among The Contenders For Amazon’s Second HQ

Reno and Las Vegas are among the 238 contenders for Amazon’s second headquarters. Amazon says it would mean 50,000 new jobs, and an investment of up to $5 billion. Proposals from cities, states and regions were due last week, and Amazon made clear that tax breaks and grants would be a big deciding factor on where it chooses to land. Amazon says the second headquarters will be a full equal to its Seattle base. The decision is expected sometime next year.
