Assemblyman Billy Jones: Statement on SterRx Plattsburgh location closing – 161 employees affected

“My heart goes out to the families and loved ones impacted by the recent closing of the SterRx facility in Plattsburgh,” said Assemblyman Billy Jones (D-Chateaugay Lake). “I am disappointed by this decision, especially since the North Country has continually invested in SterRx so that they have become a valued member of our local manufacturing sector. This is a major hit for our community, but I continue to work with local leaders and workforce development partners to find reuse of the building and help the employees find new job opportunities.”
