CONGRATULATING AMPHENOL AEROSPACE
(Mr. RILEY of New York asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. RILEY of New York. Mr. Speaker, in upstate New York, we make
things. This past weekend, we made history when Amphenol Aerospace
celebrated its 100th anniversary in Sidney.
Amphenol's is a century-old story of resilience, a community that
rebuilt after floods, coming back stronger than before.
It is a century-old story of American innovation, with the world's
most cutting-edge technologies rolling off our factory floor.
It is a decades-old story of the power of labor, a true partnership
between Amphenol and the Machinists Union, with good jobs, good wages,
and a strong middle class.
It is a century-old story of American strength. Amphenol's work
defends our homeland.
Above all, though, we are celebrating 100 years of a close-knit
manufacturing town of less than 5,000 people where the thing that
matters most is not whether you have got an R or a D next to your name,
but whether you show up for your shift, do your job with pride, treat
each other right, take care of your family, and love this country.
My family and I were honored to celebrate 100 years with everyone at
Amphenol this weekend, and we are all in for the next 100.
