Have Tyson Foods allow a firm to lease a private building they closed in Cherokee IA.

Tyson continues to lease a plant in Cherokee IA with the intention of only prevention of any competition leasing the building they shuttered in 2014.
The moving jobs out of Cherokee was one thing, but holding a town hostage is wrong.
