Tenney issues statement on Remington Arms filing for bankruptcy
Congresswoman Claudia Tenney (NY-22) released the following statement in reaction to news that Remington Arms is seeking new credit options and financing through bankruptcy protection:
“Remington Arms is an iconic business in our region that has employed generations of families for over two hundred years. Remington is one of our nation’s longest continuously operating manufacturing facilities. Unfortunately, economic downturns in the firearms industry and outstanding debt have forced Remington’s parent company to seek new credit options and financing through bankruptcy protection,” said Congresswoman Claudia Tenney. “In addition to volatility, Governor Cuomo’s anti-Second Amendment policies have negatively impacted Remington’s Ilion production facility. I have been a strong supporter of Remington Arms and its hardworking employees. My office will continue to offer support to Remington and the families impacted during this difficult time.”
