Congressmen Scott Murphy (NY-20) and Paul Tonko (NY-21) announced that President Obama will visit Hudson Valley Community College at 11:00 a.m., Monday, Sept. 21. Several months ago the Congressmen requested that the President visit the region to highlight hi-tech job creation in Upstate New York. “I am honored to welcome President Obama to Upstate New York,” said Rep. Murphy in a press release. “I am proud to show how Upstate New York is a part of the solution by quickly becoming a world leader in hi-tech jobs.”
