Read the print piece. Liked it a lot. Interesting parallels between the emigres of 2025 and the emigres post war to France. I’m an immigrant too and there is really no other place other than here you’ll see the ratchet energy of people in their underwear eating their takeout banquets on their fire escape turned porch. The ending was on point. No other place I’d be
Congratulations on your first appearance in The New Yorker, Atossa. I just saw that doc about their 100th anniversary ... that final read-through process with the editors must be intense.
I just emailed with Laura Madrid Sartoretto of Global Citizen Solutions for a piece we'll publish in the January issue of Site Selection magazine that features her perspective on how the principles behind the Global Passport Index (Netherlands ranks No. 6 among a bunch of European nations in the top 10) might be applied to corporate site selection.
The contemporary business environment increasingly demands additional layers of assessment, she writes, "including talent mobility, institutional predictability, and the broader ease with which companies and their workers can move across borders. The Global Citizen Solutions Global Passport Index (GPI), although primarily designed to assess the strength of a passport, offers an alternative lens through which investors can evaluate countries for new factories, regional headquarters, logistics hubs and R&D centers.” I naturally wonder how much individual repatriation trends will be reflected in destination countries' talent bases.
Do you have any data indicating from which states the expatriation is greatest? I live on the west coast and, anecdotally, no one I connect with here has been talking seriously about GTFO.

Smart move by TNY. Excited to read the piece
