Landis Applauds Study Ranking Ohio as Top State for Business

COLUMBUS—State Senator Al Landis (R-Dover) applauds CNBC's recent study naming Ohio as the Top State for Business in America. 

“Setting business friendly policies and generating economic competition has allowed Ohio to become the gold standard for businesses across the nation,” said Senator Landis. "I'm proud to have supported legislation raising Ohio's value as an economic development leader. I look forward to continuing to support ideas that allow Ohio to maintain its position as the best state in America to do business."

Since 2007, CNBC has scored all 50 states on 138 metrics in 10 broad categories of competitiveness. The study focuses on identifying the factors companies consider when making site selection decisions, and where states are focusing their economic development efforts to win jobs and business. In addition to being ranked the number one overall state, Ohio also ranked first in infrastructure and first in the cost of doing business.
