Press Release

Location: Buffalo, NY

"The ONSHORE Act is a vital piece of legislation that, when combined with the historic investment for domestic manufacturing I passed into law in the CHIPS & Science Act, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and the Inflation Reduction Act, will help bring manufacturing back from overseas to Upstate New York, and in the process create thousands of good-paying jobs for New Yorkers. By developing shovel ready sites for new factories at places like the former Bethlehem Steel location in Western New York, we are tapping New York's manufacturing legacy from the last century to ensure New York powers the revival of American manufacturing and critical industries like chips and clean energy are Made in America, including right here in Upstate New York. This is about leveraging Buffalo's rich manufacturing past to ensure that sites like Renaissance Commerce Park have the federal resources to become the sites for the industries of Western New York's and America's future. The ONSHORE Act will build on the historic new investments and manufacturing boom that Upstate NY is already seeing from the bills I pushed through into law last Congress, and I will fight tooth and nail to lead the ONSHORE Act to passage in my role as Majority Leader to continue to deliver federal investment in manufacturing across Upstate NY."
