MLB's decision to pull All Star Game from Atlanta 'crushing' for small businesses

"They're barely making it out of the COVID-19 pandemic, and now they’re facing under the Biden administration potentially higher taxes, higher minimum wage, more red tape and regulations, and now this,” said Ortiz.

According to Ortiz, the estimated cost of pulling the All-Star Game out of Atlanta was "upwards of $100 million."

"A lot of these were minority-owned businesses that were really looking forward (to) and desperately needed this kind of revenue in stream,” said Ortiz. "And all because, quite frankly, there was a misinterpretation or misunderstanding or, quite frankly, just an outright lie of the law that was passed here in Georgia on voting rights."

"And, the bottom line is that, that law — it just makes it easy to vote and hard to cheat," added Ortiz.
