Representative Chris Collins (NY-27th) visited Confer Plastics today. He got a chance to witness our operations and see the manufacturing of a variety of products from sharps containers to sonobuoys to 2 different styles of kayaks.
Following the tour he had a discussion with Doug and Bob Confer about US energy policy, foreign trade, and the Affordable Care Act and how each of those factors influences Confer Plastics' competitiveness at home and abroad.
Of special interest was a conversation unrelated to public policy: Chris gave critical insight to the Confers about his positive experience with self-insurance in the employee benefit packages of his businesses. It's an issue that they will now research which could save the company and its employees a great deal of money.
