Earlier today, Sen. Schumer announced that he is endorsing Joe Mesi for New York State Senate.
Here is video from the event today:
This is more on the endorsement from a campaign press release:
"I support Joe Mesi because I know he has the toughness, discipline and work ethic to stand up to entrenched interests and fight for change for hard-working families in Western New York," said New York's senior U.S. Senator.
Senator Schumer noted that Mesi has spelled out his platform for job growth in Western New York and reform in Albany in a 18-page booklet titled, "A Plan for Change-Specific New Ideas for Our Future". Mesi's plan for change includes investments in green jobs and education, a middle-class property tax cut and reductions in wasteful spending.
"Joe is the right person to represent the hard working families of Western New York," said Senator Schumer. "Joe understands what it means to face adversity, what it means stand up to a challenge, and what it means to persevere. He will fight for the change we need in albany."
Mesi's Plan for Change has been a hit. The booklet outlines Mesi's plan for Western New York should he be elected to the Senate.
This is a nice endorsement of Mesi by Schumer and it shows that Mesi has the support of key elected officials who he will have to work with to implement that plan.
