Statement of New York State AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento on Governor Hochul’s choice of Antonio Delgado as Lieutenant Governor

Albany, NY - “Governor Kathy Hochul’s choice of Antonio Delgado as Lieutenant Governor will make our state and her administration even stronger. During his time in Congress, Antonio has shown by action, not just words, that he understands the needs of union members and their families, achieving a 100% lifetime AFL-CIO voting record.  We have been proud to work with him to create good manufacturing jobs right here in New York by fighting to strengthen Buy American provisions at the federal level. We look forward to working with Governor Hochul and Lieutenant Governor Delgado to improve the lives of working people throughout our state.”
