The state Senate campaign of Anthony “Tony G” Giannattasio announced July 23 that it had received the endorsement of Samuel S. Bergami, Jr., president and CEO of Milford-based Alinabal Holdings Corporation and a community philanthropist.
Giannattasio is running in the Republican primary for the 14th Senate District, which includes all of Milford and Orange, as well as portions of West Haven and Woodbridge.
“Tony’s business acumen, along with a proven track record of promoting job opportunities, is what sets him apart from other candidates,” Bergami said.
Bergami has been involved in a diversity of community and charitable organizations. A “Businessman of the Year” award recipient, Bergami was a former chair of the University of New Haven Board of Governors, and a co-founder/past president of the Milford Columbus Committee.
“I am honored to receive Sam’s endorsement. His reputation as a businessman and service to our community is unrivaled,” Giannattasio said.
Giannattasio has been a member of the Milford Board of Aldermen since 2007 and is currently the Board’s Minority Leader and also serves on the Ordinance, Public Works, and Building committees, as well as on the Milford Planning and Zoning Commission. A longtime member of the Milford Columbus Committee, Giannattasio also is an incorporator of both Milford Hospital and Milford Bank. Additionally, he is vice president of Milford Barrel, a family-owned and operated business since 1972.
