For the past several years, a group of upstate business and trade organizations have teamed up to try and convince Albany lawmakers to pass legislation making it easier to do business. They call themselves Unshackle Upstate.

Despite their best efforts, they say things have actually gotten worse. And now, the group representing more than 70 thousand companies is fed up. For the first time, they are going to endorse candidates in this year’s election. But before they do that, they have released their scorecards for all the members of the state legislature.

Brian Sampson, the groups Executive Director, joined Liz Benjamin from Rochester Monday to talk more about the report.
