Otter Steps Up Border War
Idaho Department of Commerce Director Don Dietrich goes on the offensive in our aggressive efforts to attract business to the Gem State. Don solicited businesses in Washington and Oregon fed up with tax increases. Earlier this week Governor C.L. “Butch” Otter sent an open “love letter” to Oregon and Washington businesses informing them of the advantages of relocating their businesses to Idaho. You can hear the two interviews Dietrich gave on Tuesday in Seattle and Portland here.
Question: What do you make of Gov. Otter's aggressive try to lure Washington companies to Idaho? Do you support him at the risk of a potential border war? Or do you think Otter's tactics will come back to haunt Idaho?
