Syracuse, NY— Senator John W. Mannion on October 19th, was endorsed for re-election in the 50th Senate District by Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh.
Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh said, “Since John Mannion became a State Senator, I’ve seen firsthand how effectively he has represented the people of Syracuse and Central New York. He deserves enormous credit for sponsoring and passing the Green CHIPs bill that was a difference-maker in attracting Micron and the $100B investment to our region and 9,000 direct jobs that will transform Central New York. Senator Mannion has also delivered funding to help protect our public drinking water supply and to support our efforts to reduce gun violence and make our community more safe. He has supported our cultural institutions, colleges and universities, infrastructure needs, our young people, and is a very effective advocate for people with disabilities in the State of New York. Senator Mannion is honest, trustworthy, and shares my vision for a city and a region that are safe, prosperous, and welcoming to all. I’m proud to endorse Senator John Mannion for re-election in the 50th Senate district.”
After the endorsement, Senator John W. Mannion stated, “I’m incredibly grateful for Mayor Ben Walsh’s re-election endorsement and for his steadfast leadership of my beloved hometown of Syracuse, NY. I am even more grateful to have a partner in government like Mayor Walsh who understands regional priorities and is as committed as I am to improving people’s lives through education, good paying jobs, and a great quality of life. With construction on the horizon for the $100B Micron semiconductor complex in the 50th Senate District, it’s more important than ever to have a strong working relationship between the City of Syracuse and state government – and I am looking forward to a resounding victory on November 8th so this vital work can continue for many years to come.”
