Congressman Williams joined WSYR's Syracuse Morning News with Dave Allen to discuss his first bill, the Protect Local Farmers Act, and the debt ceiling.

"Congressman Brandon Williams (NY-22) Wednesday issued the following statement in accordance with the introduction of H.R.353, the Protect Local Farms Act. The bill would block the New York State Farm Laborers Wage Board decision to set an overtime wage threshold for agriculture employees at 40 hours by mandating federally that the overtime threshold for the agriculture industry cannot be set lower than 60 hours per week - keeping New York’s current threshold in place."
