Today the [Partnership for New York City](https://pfnyc.org/) took out a full-page ad in the New York Times with an open letter to Amazon chief executive Jeff Bezos, asking him to reconsider [the decision to pull out of NYC](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/14/nyregion/amazon-hq2-queens.html). The letter was signed by a long list of prominent leaders in the city. Here is a copy (a PDF version can also be found, [here](https://int.nyt.com/data/documenthelper/640-amazon-ad-nyt/23be553f1bef2065302d/optimized/full.pdf)):
