Griffo statement on relocation of Massena VA facility
August 24, 2021
“While I have concerns about the relocation of the VA facility from Massena to Potsdam, I am pleased that the Department of Veterans Affairs will still have a presence that it feels will continue to serve veterans in St. Lawrence County properly. I will be monitoring the situation with my partners in government, as well as veteran organizations in St. Lawrence County, to make sure that service is not diminished for veterans in the region.”
