Chuck Schumer Working Hard For Us


Recommended Posts

U.S. Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer today announced he will introduce a congressional resolution that will designate Jamestown’s National Comedy Center as the official “National Comedy Center” of the United States. The Comedy Center, located in downtown Jamestown, built in honor of the vision of Jamestown Native Lucille Ball, will serve as a landmark that celebrates America’s rich comedic history. Schumer said this official congressional designation will help solidify the facility as a civic landmark and cultural institution, and the premiere “National Comedy Center” of the United States.  

Schumer noted his successful push for $1.7 million from the Economic Development Administration, and $5M in net benefit due to New Market Tax Credits. In addition to this federal funding, the National Comedy Center has also received $10M from NYS,
