From the Trail
Last week, Matt attended Amsterdam's 6th Annual Italiafest where he competed in their annual spaghetti eating contest and met voters with Congressman Paul Tonko (NY-20). He then attended the Amsterdam 9/11 Remembrance Day memorial, where he was honored to join the community in remembering the bravery and sacrifice of the first responders and those lost.
Team Castelli Town Halls are continuing. This week Matt hosted a standing-room-only Town Hall for Essex County where he answered questions from members of the community. You can watch our town halls on YouTube here.
