On Wednesday, before a crowd of almost two dozen residents, freshman Congressman Chris Gibson out linned his top priorites: creating jobs, the deficit and small business growth.
Town Supervisor Cathy Moses and Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward introduced the Congressman at the Schroon Lake Central School Auditorium as residents listened to the Congressman speak about the federal budget and hear their concerns.
He discussed the need to remove barriers that people face in starting a business and the barriers they face in accessing capital to do so. He felt more needed to be done to match potential small business owners with available funds.
Regarding the deficit, Gibson called for more fiscal responsibility and less partisanship. He supports rolling back spending levels to what they were in 2008 and capping spending until the federal budget comes back into line.
