27th Congressional District - Partnership Evaluation

Congressman Brian Higgins has proven to be a leader in the Congressional Northern Border Caucus and Great Lakes Task Force, which has put him in a position to champion our Great Lakes Business Agenda. The Congressman continues to make himself available to the Partnership and our members, and his staff seeks our members' perspective on issues.  He's proven effective whether serving as an advocate on state matters, such as hydropower issues, removing toll barriers and Buffalo waterfront development, or acting on federal issues related to the northern border.  Finally, Congressman Higgins has been receptive to the annual Regional Agenda process the Partnership facilitates, and has worked effectively with colleagues to deliver on projects such as the federal courthouse, now under construction next to Buffalo City Hall.

The Partnership endorses Congressman Brian Higgins for re-election.
