427,800 Jobs Lost Every Year in New York. The Lawsuit Climate Is Why.
Businesses look at litigation costs before they decide where to expand. Your state keeps losing.
New York loses approximately 427,800 jobs a year to excessive tort costs. When businesses decide where to expand, they look at the litigation climate before they sign a lease. In New York, those numbers are some of the worst in the country.
If New York enacted civil justice reforms, researchers estimate the state could gain $28 billion in economic activity and 244,556 jobs. Georgia passed sweeping tort reform in 2025. South Carolina signed reform into law in May 2025. Those states are now recruiting the businesses your state drives away.
