Candidates in the 1st legislative district are making the economy a key to their election bid. The campaign of Susan Adelizzi-Schmidt, Sam Fiocchi and Kristine Gabor outlined an 8-Point Jobs and Economic Development Plan at two separate events with local small business owners. The plan was developed by a listening tour that they said they did with local business owners. Among the highlights included the creation of an economic development task force, promoting information to enhance communication to business owners, and work on the remainder of the red tape review done by Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno. Their team is running against Senator Jeff Van Drew, Assemblyman Nelson Albano, and Assemblyman Sgt. Bob Andrzejczak
