Antonio Delgado has been highlighting businesses and industries that are proud to manufacture and locate in Upstate New York -- so we have a quick survey for you, today. Friends -- By now you’ve probably heard Antonio’s story. He was born and raised in Schenectady. His parents worked for General Electric and benefited from a better regional economy, one that offered upward mobility and grew the middle class. While many of those kinds of jobs have disappeared over the past few decades, we still have manufacturers and small businesses who are proud to be #MadeInNY and #MadeInAmerica. If there is one thing that Democrats, Republicans, and independents all seem to agree on, it’s that we have to start making more things in America again. We may have different visions and plans for how best to rebuild American manufacturing, but one thing we can all do is celebrate companies and people who do business right here in New York and across the country. Antonio highlighted just a few of Upstate New York’s small breweries and distilleries, recently holding five town halls in five counties in six days at them. At each town hall, he toured the facility and spoke with the owners, discussing the important role they have in helping to grow our upstate economy. While visiting The Beer Diviner Brewery & Taproom in Cherry Plain, in Rensselaer County, Antonio was able to sample their Ancient Gruit Ale -- as he said, “it was nice.” So, we’d like to know how important is it for you to buy New York or American-made products? When you take the survey, you’ll also be able to let Antonio know more about your own favorite #MadeinNY or #MadeinAmerica products. Maybe you even know of a microbrewery in the 19th he hasn’t been to yet! Thank you, Antonio Delgado for Congress P.S. -- Here’s a photo of Antonio at Catskill Distilling Company for one of his town halls:
