Support Made in America

Sign my petition in support of American manufacturing, American jobs, and American-made products!

As your State Senator, one of my top priorities is supporting job creation and economic growth. Our children should have the opportunity to pursue a good job and rewarding career right here in the Finger Lakes and Upstate New York. Home-grown jobs, like those in manufacturing, farming and small business, are important to the future of our communities and the success of our families.

I believe items purchased with taxpayer dollars should be made in America - your tax dollars should be used to purchase products that directly support our local businesses and local economy.  And we need to support the manufacturing of more products in the United States - we can't rely on foreign countries like China to produce our goods.
