      RECOGNIZING THE LIBERTY STORE FOR OVER 100 YEARS OF BUSINESS

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JOHN KATKO

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 29, 2017

  Mr. KATKO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor The Liberty Store in 
Auburn, New York, as this family-owned business celebrates over 100 
years serving our community.
   For over a century, The Liberty Store has provided a large variety 
of menswear items to Cayuga County. When the Goldman family first 
opened the doors of its small business in 1915, it advertised shoes, 
pants, and socks. Over the years, the Goldman family has grown The 
Liberty Store into a one-stop shop for individuals and businesses 
alike, including the Auburn Correctional Facility. This small business 
has evolved over the past century to meet the needs of its clients and 
our community--now serving jails, police, and fire departments in 30 
states. The Liberty Store has become an integral part of Auburn's 
landscape and still provides menswear for Central New Yorkers of all 
ages.
   I am proud to recognize The Liberty Store and to congratulate the 
Goldman family on 102 years in business. This fourth-generation company 
has become a staple for the Auburn community and I wish The Liberty 
Store continued success in the years to come.
