The federal government is investing $1.7 billion in the Watervliet Arsenal, which helps produce the military's large caliber cannon barrels and mortar tubes. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer toured part of the facility, which has been in operation for more than 200 years, earlier today. Also, Gov. Kathy Hochul and elected officials were in Central New York today for the groundbreaking of the multibillion-dollar I-81 rebuild.
