August 12, 2021
RED HOOK, NY - Senator Sue Serino was joined by Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro as she completed her fourth and fifth stops on her ‘Small Business Bounce Back Tour’ in Red Hook and Tivoli. These stops are part of an ongoing initiative in which Serino hopes to hear directly from area small-business owners and employees about their experience throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and to gather feedback on how the state can be a more effective partner in their efforts to rebuild.
“As we continue to tour businesses throughout the Senate District, we are seeing the innovative ways that small businesses adapted to the pandemic to continue to serve our community,” said Senator Sue Serino. “Whether it was creating a new online ordering system, or figuring out ways to modify their space, they were constantly thinking outside the box about ways to stay afloat. As we work to rebuild, I want to meet our employers and employees where they are to better understand how we can help them go from ‘surviving’ to ‘thriving’ as we rebuild. Each business has their own unique story and experience, and I look forward to continuing the ‘bounce back’ tour throughout the next few weeks and learning more about ways that we can better assist.”
Senator Serino was joined on the Tivoli leg of the tour by Mayor Joel Griffith who said, “It means a lot that Senator Serino came to Tivoli to learn directly from our small business owners how they have coped with the challenges of the pandemic.”
