DeWITT, N.Y. — U.S. Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D–N.Y.) on Tuesday revealed how PPC Broadband in DeWitt, Belden’s broadband products business, is growing and bringing production back from overseas to Central New York.
The Democrat is crediting the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act for that growth. PPC is located at 6176 E. Molloy Rd. in DeWitt.
Schumer explained that PPC, which makes components for broadband connections, is expecting to have nearly 200 jobs in Central New York with more than half already hired and applications open now directly. It’s due to the “Buy America” requirements and billions in federal investment secured to build out high-speed internet across New York and the nation, Schumer noted in a news release.
