Seattle city officials voted on Tuesday to repeal a new tax measure on large companies following mounting pressure from Amazon and other local businesses.

Sitting in front of a raucous crowd, including many who opposed the repeal, the Seattle City Council members voted 7 to 2 in favor of overturning the law, which was just passed four weeks ago.
