"Micigan Leads the Way," says Maryann Marino in her recent letter to the Orange County Register.  Her comments regarding "Calfiornia's Loss, Michigan's Gain" were published on May 23rd.  Here is what she had to say:

"California should follow the lead of Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder and enact policies to attract and retain Golden State businesses and the jobs they create.

Unfortunately, the California Legislature still doesn’t get it. Just last week, the Senate Judiciary Committee heard a bill that would stop vexatious litigants – frequent filers of frivolous lawsuits – from filing dozens of cases every day against businesses without ever having to prove actual injuries, go before a court or even face a court challenge. The bill failed to pass out of committee, signaling to businesses that California’s leaders still don’t get the connection between job creation and a sour business climate.

As the Register reported, 70 companies left California during the first three months of this year. And those are just the ones that we know of and do not include those that just shut down altogether. As long as California continues to be an easy place to file lawsuits, businesses will continue to leave."
