Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin thinks it may be time for Delta to make a change after the Georgia Senate on Monday blocked a $50 million jet fuel sales tax exemption for the Atlanta-based airline.

The body made the move after Delta ended a discount it offered to members of the National Rifle Association over the weekend.

Woodfin responded in a Tuesday morning tweet: "Hey @Delta. You know, in mathematics, Delta represents the change in something, e.g. [?] HQ. Let's chat."

The mayor's tweet had nearly 500 likes and 143 retweets after two hours.

When asked to explain his tweet, Woodfin submitted this statement to AL.com: "Decades ago, Birmingham lost out on the opportunity to be home to Delta Airlines because we made our own mistakes. Today, I'm stressing that it's a new day in our community and that Birmingham is open for business.

If a state is not embracing their corporate community due to closed-minded politics, Birmingham is just a short flight away," he said. "I encourage companies like Delta Airlines to consider Birmingham, where we put people first."

Georgia Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle tweeted on Monday that he would kill any tax legislation that benefits Delta unless the airline reinstates discounts to NRA members.

"Corporations cannot attack conservatives and expect us not to fight back," he said.

Over the weekend, Delta ended a discount it offered to NRA members, joining other companies such as United Airlines and Symantec in taking action after the Parkland, Fla. school shooting.

Woodfin isn't the only government official attempting to woo Delta.

U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio and Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam both tweeted its support to Delta Tuesday morning.

Hey @Delta — Northeast Ohio would make a great HQ if you’re put off by Mr. Cagle’s authoritarian tendencies. Quality of life, infrastructure, and wonderful communities. I’d love to show you around! https://t.co/7Fsh9g0yAD — Congressman Tim Ryan (@RepTimRyan) February 27, 2018

Hey @delta—Virginia is for lovers and airline hubs. You're welcome here any time. https://t.co/BxxnOhEpt6 — Ralph Northam (@GovernorVA) February 27, 2018
