Chairman Mark Bellardini and the St. Lawrence County Democratic Committee gave overwhelming support to Senator Kirsten Gillibrand as she moves to remain the junior senator from New York. Senator Gillibrand has proven her value to Northern New York and already established a strong working relationship with St. Lawrence County during her first few months on the job.
According to Legislator Daniel Girard, “When I heard the names being mentioned for the appointment, I knew that Senator Gillibrand would be the best choice for St. Lawrence County. Her congressional district had many of the same values and difficulties as we do. She will serve the North Country and all of New York very well.”
Recently Senator Gillibrand attended an economic roundtable discussion with St. Lawrence County elected officials and business people in attendance. Her understanding of the area and the problems faced in St. Lawrence County was apparent. Senator Gillibrand came with suggestions and proved how she can be part of the solution for the North Country.
Chairman Mark Bellardini added, “Senator Gillibrand’s work in Senate committees and subcommittees places her in the areas where St. Lawrence County can develop, including agriculture, green jobs, environmental health and public works oversight. With Senator Gillibran’s clout, we can see the development of a four-lane highway, new industrial jobs, and a redevelopment of agriculture in the county.”
With all of the positives, the St. Lawrence County Democratic Committee’s endorsement is a wholehearted, simple decision about what is best for this county.
