Washington's Gun Control FORCES ZEV Technologies to Flee State for Utah
from News For Reasonable People · host Sean Reynolds
Another major company has been forced to flee a blue state due to its progressive policies. ZEV Technologies, a premier manufacturer of high-performance firearms, has officially announced it is relocating its entire headquarters and manufacturing operations from Washington state to Riverton, Utah. The company was direct, stating the move was a result of Washington's 'evolving political climate' and laws that restrict law-abiding citizens from owning the very products ZEV creates. This move to the 2A-friendly state of Utah highlights a growing trend of businesses voting with their feet, abandoning states with hostile business environments and anti-Second Amendment legislation. While Utah gains a 40,000-square-foot facility and new high-paying jobs in manufacturing and engineering, Washington is left with the consequences of its own political agenda.
