With New York state boosting Montgomery County restaurant capacity to 75% less than a month ago, Schumer said more help is on the way for the Capital Region economy BUT that local restaurants need to apply, and that the SBA will need to be at the ready to help locals. Schumer said he is pushing the Small Business Administration to stand up the new program ASAP and that he wants New York eateries first in line for these funds, given New York has been so hard hit by the pandemic. </p>\r\n<p class=\"wordsection1\">Schumer was joined by U.S. Congressman Paul Tonko, Mayor Michael Cinquanti; Bob Purtell, Montgomery County Legislature; Mike Russo, owner of Russo’s Grill;  Lou Lanzi owner of Lorenzo’s Southside restaurant; Markus Guillen of Mundo’s Café; and Jenna Dodd, a single mother of two from Amsterdam.</p>"}}
